Why this pick
Jeffrey Lau brings the same gleefully anachronistic comic energy to a mythic romance, balancing broad farce, playful costume-pageantry, and a surprisingly heartfelt romantic core.
Why this pick
Another Jeffrey Lau ensemble romp, built around absurdly heightened wuxia characters, rapid-fire silliness, disguises, and colourful period fantasy rather than solemn martial-arts grandeur.
Why this pick
Its historical setting becomes a playground for identity games, exaggerated courtship, visual gags, and buoyant romantic farce—very close to the light, knowingly artificial spirit of Second Time Around.
Why this pick
A lavishly stylised fantasy romance from Lau, mixing mythological spectacle, knowingly goofy humour, and sincere emotion beneath its extravagant costumes and effects.
Why this pick
This affectionate superhero-wuxia comedy shares the pleasure of watching famous genre conventions turned into a playful relationship story, with colourful period design and an easy comic rhythm.
