Leave your thoughts about Shanghai Blues.
| User ReviewAdriano BTsui Hark without martial art and a heartfelt tribute to cosmopolitic China (be it Shanghai or HK...): in a way, the style reminds me of an Italian "White Telephone" comedy of the '30s, so let me keep it in a soft spot of my cine-mongery. |
| User ReviewAlex STsui Hark's perfectly scaled neo-screwball romance that remembers the spirit of screwball lies more in the celebration of the optimistic, hardscrabble hope in people (with post-war China filling in for depression-era America) than any particular plot shenanigans. And the theme song will be stuck in your head forever. |
| User ReviewScott RThe kind of farce that is so bad it is almost good. |
