Like every girl who wishes to be a pretty princess, Hanna (who leads a miserable life by providing the singing voice of a lean and mean diva) undergoes nip-tuck to become a slim and attractive figure of desire. So after the ugly duckling transforms the beautiful swan, things change for the better, or do they?
Without watching this movie, you’d know that the girl would be blinded by the materialistic world and begin losing her friends, family, and most importantly, her inner beauty. But fear not, because the feel-good flick will conclude with a happy ending, and the gorgeous girl may just bring home with her a handsome prince.
The last time Hong Kong actress Sammi Cheng put on a fat suit in Johnnie To and Wai Ka-Fai’s Love on a Diet (2001), we loved the good-natured girl to bits, and what’s more, Cheng garnered a Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress nomination for her adorable role.
So you see, in the world where body discrimination continues to plaque our horizontally-challenged friends, character still plays a part.
