An ode to artistry and perseverance. For a

An ode to artistry and perseverance. For a film which revolves around sex, Viva Erotica doesn't feel the least bit sleazy or grimy, instead offering an electrifying meta-filmic takedown of both the absurdity and sensationalism of the world around Category III filmmaking. It throws out the window any typical expectations you have, delivering a provocative satire that pokes fun at the film industry while celebrating the people who keep it running. Although at times, Viva Erotica seems precisely like the soft-core sex flicks it's trying to skewer, starting with a literal bang with one of the most enthusiastic bonking scenes ever witnessed, yet it all comes together in a surprisingly heartfelt examination of filmmaking, artistic compromise and the struggle to survive in a commercial entertainment industry.

Director's self-confession about his career & some sarcastic

Director's self-confession about his career & some sarcastic, in-jokes about how the industry runs. The first 2/3 is so catchy & funny, owing much to the amusing performance by Shu Qi & Law Kar-Ying. The last 1/3 is getting so tiring, loose & sloppy however.

An out-of-work director agrees to make an erotic

An out-of-work director agrees to make an erotic film against his will so he can pay the bills. But if he is going to do it, it's going to be HIS way. I bet that's the one-liner directors Derek Yee and Lo Chi-Leung gave executives that got them the green light. Viva Erotica is maybe the first serious film that gets away with showing female breasts and still being a magnificent work of art — at least that I know of. The film satirizes the film industry's (Hong Kong's and global) obsession with sex in a very original way: by making a sex film. Directors Derek Yee and Lo Chi-Leung also wrote the script, with Ka Man being a third writer. Most of the credit goes to them for the innovative premise and great execution, but the cast doesn't fall short either, especially Leslie Cheung as Kwok-Wing, Karen Mok as Man-Wai, and Shu Qi as Mango (particularly Shu Qi as Mango!). Simply put: one of the best films I have ever watched.
