I had high hopes for this movie as I settled into my flight (economy class as I can't afford business) to watch this modern day HK movie. I don't know that the HK movie industry is like these days.
One tiresome aspect in Lost in Hong Kong is the overdoing of the helmet or whatever on the lead character Xu Lai during critical moments. Funny at first, but some tighter editing would have helped to get the movie moving along and for less frustration for the audience. I wonder what the producers have next in store...perhaps Lost in Auckland or Lost in Pittsburgh.
Still, I would watch Lost on Hong Kong, as I would probably appreciate it a second time around. I'd definitely buy the DVD if there was a director's or actor's commentary.
