Fu sing

How to say, this film feels strange. In terms of struggle, there is a lot of space to describe discrimination against Chinese Americans in Hong Kong and Britain; in terms of history, but neglect important events; in terms of emotions, we can only see that the male and the two women are inseparable. And it's disgusting to add something about the heavenly Dynasty in the second half of the film. What's wrong with the way to foreigners? You're in the Commonwealth and you don't even need a visa. If one-sided, one will flatter.

Admittedly at times one didn't know where the movie storyline was going and certain areas did not transition well as if a bit disconnected. But make no mistake, this is a true Cinderella story of a lost abandoned forgotten individual through unsuspected turn of events was transformed. A very good movie.

Really great story. Enjoyed it as it told not just the story of one man's family in Hong Kong, but of the story of Hong Kong itself. Amazing storyline.

Good movie but plot can be slow at times.

A single word is really only needed to summarize this movie. And that word is: wow.

I have a tremendous love for the Hong Kong cinema, and a movie such as "Floating City" (aka "Fu sing") is one of the reasons why I love Hong Kong cinema so much. Granted, I hadn't heard about this 2012 movie from writers Marco Pong and Ho Yim before now in 2020, when I was given the chance to sit down and watch it. Needless to say that I jumped at the chance, without knowing what I was in for here with this particular movie.

Initially the movie started out as being somewhat strange, but it quickly became something very interesting and beautiful at the hands of director Ho Yim. The way the story was presented was spectacular, and the storyline was really captivating and moving. It is the kind of story that sinks in and will stay with you for quite some time.

In fact, the script was so compelling and emotional that you might want to have a tissue or two ready towards the end of the movie. This was really a fantastic movie in many different ways.

The movie stars some really nice acting talents, with the likes of Aaron Kwok, Josie Ho and Annie Liu. And everyone in the movie really performed quite well with their given roles and characters, and that was something the really contributed greatly to the overall enjoyment of the movie. I will say that this 2012 movie was without a doubt one of the best performances by Aaron Kwok that I have seen; he was really phenomenal in this movie.

I was genuinely surprised with the outcome of the movie and found it to be a very spectacularly told story; one that I have taken to heart and one that will stick with me for quite some time. There weren't really a dull moment throughout the course of the movie, and the various events throughout the story were nicely tied together in a very fulfilling and wholehearted manner by director Ho Yim.

If you enjoy the Hong Kong cinema and want a movie that is driven by a phenomenal storyline, then "Floating City" is a must watch. I am rating it an eight out of ten stars. "Floating City" is definitely well worth the time, effort and money.
