83 minutes; in Cantonese with English subtitles.
Taking its name from the pantheon of the top four Cantopop stars (themselves tagged after Buddhist deities), California-born Hong Kong superstar Daniel Wu’s entertaining directorial debut is a mockumentary--or popumentary--about the formation of a boyband called “Alive.” Playfully bounding along, the film offers some real insights into the state of contemporary pop music, media industries, and stardom/celebrity. |
