REVIEW:
" ...Still, the stars do help - that is, the ones who are famous. It's nice to see Sandra Ng back and her comedic chops are obvious even when she's assaulting the audience with them full force. Louis Koo and Ronald Cheng complement each other well; Koo handles comedy better than his dashing ladykiller image would imply, while usual comedian Cheng is a surprisingly good dramatic actor. Both act like loons, and since this formula is largely dependent on big stars acting like loons, that's a total plus. Too bad the jokes themselves are not that great. Director Vincent Kok is a veteran of too many thin all-star comedies to name, and his work here is solid in its competent blandness. The film chugs along amiably, serving up the occasional clever gag along with some laughs, groans and moments of total silence - and it's all harmless enough that giving it a pass is rather easy. Again, familiarity with the original is a plus, as some jokes are lifted wholesale, and the constant game of "spot the star" can be diverting. At the very least, the film isn't insulting.
That is, except for the film's one running gag. Whenever a character falls in love, they act woozy and start spinning around in a dopey fashion while tinkly music plays on the soundtrack. The first time it happens, Yu Chu performs an energetic and amusing Singin' in the Rain parody, but after that the gag never really varies, nor is it actually funny. Eventually, the entire cast gets to perform the "dizzy with love" dance, and what was once cute and harmless becomes cringe worthy. At the film's climax, Raymond Wong is the one spinning like a dope, and by then the joke has long worn out its welcome. Picking on a single running gag may seem mean, but its repeated and insipid use only makes the filmmakers seem lazy. Frankly, Vincent Kok is better than that, and audiences deserve more, too. All's Well End's Well 2009 will undoubtedly earn some affection for its familiarity, but the execution is exceptionally uninspired. Hong Kong Cinema needs more than recycled movie formulas or nostalgia to really move forward. Some actual originality or creativity would be a good start.... "
