The storyline starts with the main character Chapman To who is an unsuccesful film producer who just can’t catch a break. However, he doesn’t give up and is always on the lookout to make one. But with all his financial issues he is extremely desperate for money to help him. You also see that To finds it difficult to make his alimony payments to his ex-wife. We see that To’s daughter still has faith for her father, even though her parents are bitter to one another, and encourages him that he will indeed create a hit film one day. She feels that if he is encouraged and he succeeds that she can boast about this to friends at school, informing them that he is a successful film producer, and a father to be proud of.
Later on, we notice that To continues on his quest for a hit movie, and is introduced to a local investor called Tyrannosaurus by a fellow friend who turns out to be apart of a triad gang. The film that they go to make together is a pornographic film, this is expressed through Tyannosaurus’ passion for sex. To be able to impress his new investor, To and his friend go out for dinner with him to discuss further the investment. Whilst they are attending dinner, they discuss subjects such as remaking an old movie into a new one and To becomes very interested in this idea. However, because To and his friend are unsatisfied with the food in Tyrannosaurus’ favourite restaurant, he takes this to offence. The only way that he would offer To the role was to get To and his friend to appear in the movie and engage in vulgar sexual acts with a mule.
The film captures many crude scenes such as the mule sexual act and raunchy jokes which are mostly in-jokes that would only be understood by Asian citizens. The comedy value is forced out in the film rather than smooth for a Western audience. Overall, this film is just a sex comedy filled with innuendos about pornography. I was a little disappointed with this film because it was dragged out too much. Because the film was not in English but had English subtitles it was difficult to read the subtitles and concentrate on what was going on in the film.
