爱呼2：爱情左右 (FIT LOVER 2008)

30 may be the mark of a man's maturity but it is also an important age for a woman. This story evolves around a woman turning 30 and given 12 choices for her ideal mate. How will she choose? She is a beautiful TV host who lives in a huge apartment and has enough money to squander. Not quite like the desperate type but overall still a realistic rendition of the modern career women. I am not even sure why I enjoyed it. The impossible-to-please lady brings a smile to my face and then there are the times even if it seems so right, it is so wrong.

Now these are 12 prime choices, each with their own charm but also flaws. There is the straight-forward tycoon who goes to a nightclub and pays the ladies to answer his question on what woman wants. Unfortunately, he has a skewed sense of romance and knows nothing about what women want. Moving on. There is the struggling artist who is finally able to put down his sob-sob past and attempt to love again. What’s there not to love about a guy who can’t work in a clean environment and trusts his feelings so immensely? We even have the ultimate romantic insurance salesman who knows how to sweet talk and all the special ways to touch a lady. But in the end, it was the guy who has always loved her who won her heart. Maybe this is proof that love transcends time and is patient.

I have always liked the female lead, 林嘉欣. She has the sweetest smile that can melt anyone’s heart and has that special effect. She is not gorgeous or stunning but she has a certain quality that shines through. I may be biased as I have always been a fan so forgive me. Her performance in this show while entertaining does not reflect her best work. I believe all the guest appearances took away the attention on her, well because they had better acting and more appeal. This is similar to a concert where you get all these guests appearing in the middle.

Nowadays, anything that can break a few laughs can be a success on the big screen - no matter how idiotic or pointless the plot. Romance have been done so many times but can never get old. People want to believe in love and hope.

女主角：“我们的基础在哪里？”
范伟：“人怕出名猪怕壮，男怕没钱女怕胖。我有钱，你不胖，我们不是很有基础么？”
女主角：“可是我喜欢白马王子。”
范伟颓然坐进沙发“……那完了，他们都叫我黑马胖子……”
