Miss Behavior
June Lam stars in writer-director Pang Ho-cheung’s new comedy, MISS BEHAVIOR. Her character, also named June, is in trouble: She accidentally used a bottle of her boss’s breast milk to make coffee for a client. Now, she has to secure a replacement before her boss finds out, and to do so, she calls on her estranged friends for help. The clock is ticking; only they can save the day.
MISS BEHAVIOR also stars Dad Chan, Isabella Leong and more.
Crazy Alien
CRAZY ALIEN is the third installment in director Ning Hao’s black comedy trilogy, following CRAZY STONE (2006) and CRAZY RACER (2009). The film revolves around a strange experience of a zookeeper named Geng Hao (Huang Bo), whose life has been fairly dull until he saves a mysterious creature. Once back home, Geng quickly realizes the creature is an alien and is eager to send it away, but he finds he’s already in trouble.
Matthew Morrison (“Glee”) co-stars alongside Huang Bo (from the previous CRAZY films and the hit BREAKUP BUDDIES).
Pegasus
An old-time racing champion tries to come back to the race track in PEGASUS. Directed by Han Han, the adventure comedy is “one of the most anticipated films of the year in China” (Variety). Zhang Chi (Shen Teng) only has a few years left to make his comeback, following a five-year suspension from the motorsport. He reunites with his former teammates to regain his past glory, this time with his 6-year-old son by his side.
Peppa Celebrates Chinese New Year
Start off the Year of the Pig with PEPPA CELEBRATES CHINESE NEW YEAR. In the part live action, part animated film, Tang Yuan, Jiao Zi and their family enjoy Chinese New Year together, learning about traditions and sharing “Peppa Pig” stories. The film itself is a celebration with Chinese customs and cultural elements incorporated into the storyline, including a dragon parade, firework display and more.
