Now if you're looking for a Valentine's Day movie for this weekend, we highly recommend Look For A Star. It's as light as a breeze and as fluffy as cotton candy, and just perfect for date night.

Directed by the very competent Andrew Lau (Infernal Affairs, Initial D), it stars Andy Lau as a wealthy casino owner who's been divorced three times but still looking for love. He meets the comely Shu Qi, a sexy cabaret dancer and part-time poker dealer who dares to talk back to him. They're drawn to each other, and romance soon follows.

As Andy is a public figure, the spotlight eventually turns on the couple. And that's when their problems begin. She starts to soak in the attention; he starts to think she's after his money. He wants to sign a pre-nup; she thinks he doesn't love her.

Inspired by the life and loves of Macau's 'King of Gambling' Stanley Ho, Look For A Star feels both fresh and familiar at the same time. Much of its strength lies in the script's multiple storyline that has Andy and Shu Qi's glamorous affair foiled by the more down-to-earth romances of his chauffeur and his secretary.

Indeed, Look For A Star is one of those rare films that has its head in the clouds and its feet firmly rooted on the ground. It's pure 100% romantic entertainment that you won't regret catching, especially on Valentine's Day.
