Critic Reviews

Rick Groen, Globe and Mail
Well, consider the job half done: Sexy it ain't, but, once in a while, you will crack a smile.
-
Linda Barnard, Toronto Star
There's a lot lost in translation and the oft-repeated jokes are mostly of the lame variety.
-
Philip French, Observer [UK]
Not surprisingly, Voutas's inept movie has yet to find a Chinese distributor. Surprisingly, it has found one here.
-
Laurence Boyce, Little White Lies
A brave attempt to do something different. Revolution may not be entirely successful, but it is made with heart.
-
Patrick Peters, Empire Magazine
Voutas offers a sex comedy salted with satirical comment on Chinese society.
