I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

I am a fan of Angelica Lee's acting. She seems so natural, no matter what role she plays. As the model for a computer game character, she seems at once perfect. The two actors that play the game's creators, Daniel Wu and Edison Chen, are also fine, but they don't have the same degree of likability. I have seen more than one film in which Ms. Lee has acted in which her looks are somewhat disparaged (If memory serves, in "Koma" she does it herself!). She has beautiful, big dark eyes and is otherwise very appealing. That appeal, along with her willingness, somewhat reluctantly at times, to go along with being the computer game model, makes the film enjoyable. Of course, there are other things going on, and they don't detract from the movie's unusual premise. You want everyone to succeed in this film. This film sometimes plays on the high definition cable channels, and it looks great in HD. Don't miss it.

If you are easily moved by love movies, this one will catch you. The story of the young girl (Angelica Lee aka Princess D) getting in some way closer to Daniel Wu (the computer game designer) mixed with the background story of his father as a dancing teacher invites you to dream.Mixing three / four story lines into one movie can work and it can not. In this case I think it has worked. Others point out that it is mainly due to Angelica Lee, but I think that all story lines work well. If you are into Asian movies and like the feeling you get from those it is a good movie, giving you enough space to think along and still pointing you to the important things.The language is typical Hongkongnese: Chinese mixed with English words and adds the flavor of modern Asia to the movie. Neon lights, drugs, discos, for me it just feels right!--- SPOILER AHEAD --- Without saying too much I just think that at the ending you hope that the glimpse of a woman's face in a bus is the one you think it is.

Angelica Lee lifts an otherwise pedestrian story into one deserving of attention. Lee delivers a powerful performance, made even the more extraordinary because she's relatively new to this whole acting thing. Even so, she's the only reason to watch this movie, giving it heart and soul and just about anything else you'll need to fall in love with this film.Lee's 2002 film is THE EYE, another great choice.8 out of 10.

Daniel Wu plays a video game designer who overcomes a creative block up after a strange and wonderful rescue from near death by a punk bartender played by the wondrous Lee Sin Ji from a club. He finds in her inspiration for his next big game, and through their relationship they begin to learn to empower themselves through the pursuit of their respective dreams. Some wonderful CGI sequences that lead me to believe that Princes D would actually be a very cool, creepy and dreamlike adventure game. Lots of delicious visual storytelling, often the most powerful when saying the least verbally. And the supporting characters are wonderful, with interesting stories themselves that do an excellent job of underscoring the main plot. This is a really neat piece of work that I believe points to the potential of mainstream Hong Kong dramatic cinema when approached with integrity rather than looking for a quick cash in on the current big name (in other words, this is the opposite of Andy's Lau's awful recent flick "Wesley's Mysterious Files".
