Subtle, and with a surprisingly melancholy aftertaste, it proves that Hong Kong films don't have to be all action to be good.

Fails to overcome its recycled elements but displays a winning spirit that's hard to dislike.

An utterly charming retro romancer set against a background of '70s movie going.

Sometimes hilarious, sometimes melodramatic, Just One Look always rings true.
