The Good, the Bad and the Forgiving Woman:

• While Herman Yau is a great director, Erica Li's writing kind of ruined the movie.

• The film has so much typical, cheesy drama to the point that it gets annoying. But what's more annoying is Charlene Choi's acting.

• Charlene Choi plays the victim of the relationship while Pakho Chau is the jerk. But sometimes, you sort of understand why he's a jerk because the woman just can't stop nagging.

• Choi's character is not exactly likable in the movie, instead her love rival played by Michelle Wai has a much better character.

• Wai is realistic and convincing in her role, and she has a better attitude in the movie, so sometimes you can't stop but to root for her.

• Though the movie has a lot of cameos from famous figures like Anthony Wong, Kara Hui and Francis Ng, none of them can salvage this clumsy and annoying movie.
