Hello Babies ( HK ) movie

Hello Babies
A Chinese New Year film about two married couples of different ages and backgrounds and how they deal with issues relating to reproduction in a hilarious and heartwarming manner. One couple decides not to have children in order to maintain their peaceful lifestyle, while another are still trying for a baby after many years of marriage. When one of the couple's wealthy uncle is diagnosed with early stage Alzheimer's disease, their lives are forever changed as his nephew can only inherit his vast fortune on the condition that he has children.

Classification: P13
Genre: Comedy / Romance
General Release Date: 30 Jan 2014
Running Time: 1 Hour 33 Minutes
Distributor: Lotus Five Star
Cast: Raymond Wong, Eric Tsang, Sandra Ng, Raymond Lam Fung, Ronald Cheng, Fiona Sit 
Director: Vincent Kok

SYNOPSIS

The story in "Hello Babies" goes like this: For years, wealthy Malaysian businessman Lui Ming (Raymond Wong) and his old nemesis Yeung Wai (Eric Tsang) have been fighting for everything. When Lui discovers that Yeung is going to have a grandson from his son Alex (Alex Lam) and daughter-in-law Shan (Karena Ng), Lui immediately forced his grandnephew couple Scallop (Ronald Cheng) and Cher (Fiona Sit) to produce baby as soon as possible or he will revoke all their financial expenses. To ensure everything goes smoothly, Lui hires a "superstar" midwife Gong San (Sandra Ng) to supervise Scallop and Cher for the whole process. Naturally, a series of comical moments ensues.

While the collaboration between screen veterans Raymond Wong and Eric Tsang sounds like a good idea, the end result in "Hello Babies" isn't much different than your average Chinese New Year movie that have been released many times in recent years. Not surprisingly, most of the jokes feel either threadbare (e.g. the farting sequence!) or recycled from previous like-minded comedies. Even the script, written by Vincent Kok, Anselm Chan, Poon Jun-Lam and Cheung Wai-Kei, is formulaic.

Vincent Kok's direction is mostly mediocre but there are times where "Hello Babies" manages to inject a fair share of hilarious moments. Among them is the rib-tickling sequence involving Scallop, Cher and a yoga instructor (Jan Lamb) performing suggestive sexual positions-like yoga exercises. And the other one involves an elaborate role-playing sequence in the hospital that you just have to see it for yourself.
As for the acting ensemble, they do whatever they can to milk every laugh possible. While some of them tries too hard to be funny or even goes overboard to the point of annoyance, their overall playful performances - especially Ronald Cheng, Fiona Sit and Sandra Ng - are reasonably satisfying.

Although "Hello Babies" doesn't bring anything new or special to this well-worn genre, the movie remains fairly worthwhile for a few good laughs this Chinese New Year. Lastly, do watch out for a few cameo appearances as well as "spot-the-movie-parody" moments throughout the movie.


Here is some picture taken during red carpet. Mom & me just behind Vincent Kok and dad & bro behind Wong Tzu-Yu. Unbelievable that I able see them face to face and High Five with them. Thanks to Kate Yong for the tickets.
