Leave Me Alone

2004 · 93 min Comedy Crime
4.9 / 10 · TMDB

Gay fashion designer Yiu Chun Man (Ekin Cheng) is visited in Hong Kong by his straight twin brother, Yiu Chun Kit (also Ekin Cheng). Kit borrows his brother’s driver’s license, and is then involved in a car crash in which a woman dies (see also Ab-normal Beauty), and Kit falls into a coma. With no ID card, Man is unable to prove his identity, so he assumes the identity of his brother, and takes up with Kit’s girlfriend, Jane, (Charlene Choi), and goes with her to Thailand. Jane, however, is having some money problems, and is deeply indebted to a loan shark (Dayo Wong), who pursues Man and Jane. Kit comes out of his coma and finds himself struggling to fend off the amorous advances of Man's boyfriend (Jan Lamb), who is a high-ranking Hong Kong police officer.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its comedic chaos on the classic 'twin switch' trope, but injects it with provocative social and sexual contrasts. It relies heavily on a single actor playing dual roles, generating dynamic and often absurd situational humor.

Those who tire of overly sentimental comedies may find refreshing energy in this crime-tinged farce with its unexpected romantic entanglements. What lingers after the credits is the sense of a brisk, unpretentious Hong Kong crowd-pleaser. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Danny Pang Phat
