    Very cool 1995 effort from Tsui Hark. Leslie Cheung delivers an awesome performance, and the so, so, SO hot Anita Yuen has bright red/green punk rock hair! This is a movie where the food is just as much of a character as the actors- if that makes any sense. The prep scenes are be...( read more)autiful, and manages to convey in a competitive sense what, say, a kung fu fight would in a Sammo film or shoot out would in a John Woo film. This is one of those movies that was made for people who just adore movies in general, not fans of a specific niche or genre. Recommended to anyone who loves movies.
