"Comic book fan Kin (Ekin Cheng) works for a marketing company owned by the father of her girlfriend. One day, while trying to come up with ideas to promote a health drink for a client, Kin makes a wild suggestion that they organize an international martial arts competition offering a HK$5 million prize. As the client's company would be the main sponsor therefore worldwide exposure would be imminent. To Kin's surprise, this harebrained idea is accepted and what's more, a Shaolin master is even fielding some competitors. Next we find Kin flying off to Japan to invite a famous Chinese kungfu master to join up. However instead of agreeing to take part himself, the old man sends his daughter Anna (Miriam Yeung). However Anna has something else in mind besides the prize money. Learning that a talent scout from Hollywood is involved, she plans to use her kungfu moves to become a movie star." - Taken from AsianWiki Edit Translation

The story is a complete mess. It drags and lags with only the rarest of cute or amusing moments. The main male character, Ken, is a terrible person, who does nothing to make you want to root for him. He's slimy and lazy. When you find yourself actually rooting AGAINST the main male lead- it's time to find the remote or open a new window - seriously. The main female lead, Anna, isn't much better. The love triangle is HORRIBLE! Ken is a sweet and loveable man who can't decide between the two women in his life - no wait - sorry I was day-dreaming again! Ken is a misogynistic jerk who holds onto to both women for his own selfish reasons.
Which leads me to the cast. The way Ekin Cheng plays Ken is unbelievable. He puts out a quirky, sweet, Hugh grant in the movies kind of vibe, when his character is really Hugh Grant in real life arrested for getting caught with a prostitute. It just doesn't work. Why do you think we would find you charming when you act like that?
The same goes for Miriam Yeung who plays Anna. She really just leaves the character flat.
As for re-watch - well I never score high on that - but for this one I was like like WOW you actually made it through ONCE - dear god in heaven no more!
I can not in all honesty even say give it a try. I think there are definitely more entertaining choices out there.
