MIGHTY PEKING MAN'S REVIEW: Not one dull moment goes by in this powerful drama starring some of the best talent in the business, including: Chow-Yun Fat, Sylvia Chang, Mang Tat Wu and a gifted little actor named Kwan Yuen Wong - let me tell you, this is one kid who deserves something that's beyond an Oscar. "All About Ah-Long" tells the story of Ah-Long, a hardworking, single father of a little boy named "Porky". Ah-Long and Porky are more than just father and son - they're best friends of a different kind. Both their lives are drastically changed when someone "important" from the past walks into their lives: Sylvia Chang. As the plot unfolds, all three characters have to make a decision that will change the rest of their lives. Touching, romantic, tragic and unforgettable. Don't miss this one.

MIGHTY PEKING MAN'S RATING: 9/10
