Info

Three years ago, drama teacher Lam Hiu Yeung (Karena Lam) lost her younger brother in a kidnapping case, headed by female inspector Ho Yuen Chun (Rene Liu). Three years later, she is now on the verge of another great loss: her husband is in the late stages of cancer, and options are running out. To take him overseas for medical treatment, she needs money, and a lot of it. Using what she learned from her brother's tragic incident, she calmly masterminds the kidnapping of a tycoon's son, a case that again falls into the laps of workaholic detective and divorced mother Yuen Chun. These two strong-minded women square off in a high-stakes battle of wits, but plans and composure melt away on both sides when they realize that Hiu Yeung has nabbed the wrong kid - Yuen Chun's son.

HeadlinesExotic Boring
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Jason Lee Another production of the cooperation of Mainland China-Hong Kong-Taiwan, Bong Ga suffers from a very mediocre script and extreme overacting from Rene Liu. Rene, who did such a wonderful job in A World Without Thieves, has seen her career slip downhill slowly but surely in recent years, mostly from participating in mediocre projects. Some of her TV series has been especially cringeworthy.Karena Lam Kar Yan's career has taken an interesting turn though. The Vancouver born Hong Kong actress started out as a sweet smiling, low key TV series actress as she was just settling into the Entertainment circle in Hong Kong. She has made numerous commercials and usually sells herself with her dimply smile but recently, she has been testing herself with villain roles and has taken a complete 180 degree turn in image. Although she does a very respectable job with her newfound cold and dark demeanor, she doesn't quite fully convince me because I still see her as that cute girl with the wide, sweet smile all the time. But, it is nice to see that she is taking acting seriously instead of using the same one-dimensional trick. Karena should be one to watch out for. Rene on the other hand needs to tone down the overacting and find her best form again in smart, original projects.
