  • Trivial Matters further demonstrates that Pang Ho-Cheung is Hong Kong's leading young director - even if the movie itself isn't really very good. A dry, witty, and sometimes unfathomable series of vignettes, Trivial Matters is an adaptation of Pang's published fiction, which has earned its own fans due to its cleverness and wit. Pang translates that wit here in a sometimes self-amused fashion, but his usual flirtation with overt cleverness is lost because Pang has subdued his style, opting out of obvious attention-grabbing significance and simply letting the material speak for itself. There are gags and reveals aplenty, but the jokes here seem to be mostly in the content, and less in the actual form. For those tired of the obvious "wink-wink" of Pang's earlier efforts, the change is a good thing. Too bad the actual quality of the stories is so uneven, and even when the film works it's most definitely an acquired taste. Still, as often is the case, even average Pang Ho-Cheung is better than what we usually get.

  • The Hong Kong black comedy returns to its vibrant, edgy self in Pang Ho-cheung's Trivial Matters, released after several years of local films being gradually watered down for the broader Chinese audience. Today one of the city's most exciting talents in darker comedies thanks to his debut You Shoot, I Shoot, as well as Men Suddenly in Black and AV, Pang joined forces with co-producer and actor Chapman To to invest in and deliver a clever crowd-pleaser of seven short stories taken from Pang's book of the same title. First released at Christmas 2007 as the plucky Cantonese alternative to Peter Chan's The Warlords, the megastar-led period blockbuster of the season, Trivial Matters goes beyond its unassuming title with a potpourri of charming and entertaining local skits and tales. Kicking off the cinematic quickies is the opening short film Vis Major, in which a psychiatry professor winds up consulting a former student on his sex life. But little does he know that the younger shrink is gaining a remarkably vivid picture of the story from the professor's wife as well. Soon after, in the genre-bending It's A Festival Today, a frustrated young man hopes that having his chaste girlfriend move in with him will finally lead to sex. When that's clearly not the case, he must devise a novel plan to make the girl drop her defenses, if not her clothes. In Tak Nga, even more scheming is on the cards when a classroom documentary from the year 4571 explains how a Hong Kong teen fraudster le...
