Info

Hong Kong filmmaker Derek Chiu directs this quiet romance that recalls the gentle style of Francois Truffaut. Young and attractive Mandy (Yo Yo Mung) flees the hustle of Hong Kong proper and a failed relationship for the bucolic quiet of Peng Chau, one of several dozen communities located on the former colony's outlying islands. There she stays in a rooming house with the mute and slightly slow Kam Shui (Louis Koo). In spite of herself, she falls for the misfit, much to the consternation of Angel (Siu Au), Kam Shui's tomboyish best friend who also harbors feelings for him. Chiu masterfully brings out the nuances of life on the island in this simple tale, simply told.

Sealed with a Kiss Audience Reviews

XoWizIama Excellent adaptation.
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
im_noboy_yet I'm deeply touched by the sense of freshness and originality of this Hong Kong movie. Although I don't really like the script, the director has done an excellent job. There isn't one dragging moment in the film -all precise and meaningful. Louis Koo did a good job portraying a mute, naive and crude village boy. I think he is too handsome for this role though. And as a result, the uncourageous and regretful love story between the two lovers seems to make no sense.
mei617 "Sealed with a Kiss" is about relationships that could never be. The movie was somber and boring over-all. The first half was okay, however, the second half was slow and a little weird. The over-all acting was okay; Louis did a good job playing his character (who cannot speak).
