A different take on Rich woman story where the Female lead is actually soft hearted.

This was my third or fourth hongkong movie, I think so, and honestly the movies i watched before this one either had a crappy story or crappy acting or crappy acting or crappy dialogues, which made it a borefest. So, i had some initial doubts on whether watching it or not. But I'm glad that i proceeded watching it as this movie was refreshingly pleasant to watch. So if you are like me who are hesitating to watch, go ahead and don't miss it.

Story
This is another take of the trope of rich woman poor man love story, which was rarely done in chinese, korean and other asian cinema. Being a male, i usually preferred watching any movie having this trope, but sadly most of the movies had over the top idiotic stories, with arrogant and rude female lead and a male lead contrary to it. But this movie took a straight u turn and made the female lead kind hearted. The female lead is the heir or rich business conglomerate, and is a spoilt child, who doesn't know the value of money. Unbearing of her immense expenses, her family and butler hatch a plan to make her understand the difficulty of earning money. What happened during and after the plan forms the later part of the story. The story, though very old was very good, and the male and female leads were structured properly without over the top irritating characteristics assigned. Though unbelievable at some points, it had the vibes of jdrama, with natural stories, and hooked me on until i completed it.

Acting
This was another thing this movie farred well compared to all other hong kong movies. The acting was natural, and the female though looked crazy at some times, pulled off her character really well, that made me forget all the unreality points in the plot. The male lead too did his role quite well, and their chemistry was pulled well.

Music
Well, i never care about the music in the movie, but the cantonese or han language spoken by the actors in the movie was sometimes irritating which reduced my score in the music category.

Rewatch value
This movie is perfect for rewatching. I watched this movie twice and i'm fully aware of the story but still the quirky won't bore me out.

Overall
This movie is interesting take on rich poor man story. I watched this on kissasian which had a crappy quality, but who cares, as long as the movie was good i wouldn't mind watching it even in 144p. Though the voice was bad, don't regret skipping this movie.
