VARIETY SEZ: EVERLASTING REGRET SUCKS EVERLASTINGLY

It's been shooting forever. Sammi Cheng went bonkers to get amped up and in character for it. It's been dogged by scandals and censorship. So, was EVERLASTING REGRET, Stanley Kwan's latest movie, worth it.

Variety sez: No.

Derek Elley calls the flick out as beautiful (William Chang production designing - natch) but says it's dramatically dead. And as for Sammi's "She's not crazy, she's acting" work? He calls it "mask-like" and "out of her depth."
