Summer Holiday
Also Known As: 夏日的麼麼茶
Newly-crowned Queen of Box Office, Sammi Cheng, stumbles a bit in her second strike of summer 2000. This uneven romantic comedy is an amusing piece of fluff, but it doesn’t go anywhere near the heights of Cheng’s previous film, Needing You. Jingle Ma directs this story about Summer, a driven HK career woman, who’s dumped by her boyfriend and fired from her job. With little left, she discovers that the Malaysian beach she co-owns with her cousin is desired by a developer for upwards of 4 million US dollars. She travels to Malaysia to sell but discovers that the new co-owner is a beach bum named Mor Mor Cha. Mor Mor Cha refuses to sell, so Summer decides to stay and persuade him into selling the beach.
