Involved an touching

Excellent atmosphere, beautiful painted. You really felt part of the three stories. That's what a good movie needs. The acting is convincing and very realistic. In reality you can meet the people who show up in these three stories. If you've lived in the Far-East and 'have something' with east-Asian girls, I strongly recommend to watch this movie. I saw it in the cinema last year, but I cannot wait to buy it on DVD. I think it is quite underrated, and it deserves much better critics. Comparing to Fow Pyng Hu's first movie 'Jacky', Paradise Girls has much more power and although he uses the same long shots as in Jacky, this movie never bores. Han Zijlmans

Nice reflection on cultural issues

For some reasons I liked this film a lot. Maybe it was because it caused me to reflect on some of the differences between the cultures depicted in the movie. There are hardly any plot lines in the three short stories, but there is a strong impression of how people from different cultural backgrounds are sometimes able and sometimes unable to communicate. Especially in the first two stories it shows how people can survive a cultural crisis. I suppose being Dutch and having traveled in Asia has something to do with it. This film certainly worked for me. I hope it works for others who do not share any of the background.
