Cast List: Roger Kwok - Cheung Yee Fai Charmaine Sheh - Ng Sin Yu (Ruby Ng/Ah Bee) Melissa Ng - Sam Yuet Derek Lee - Wai Yat Siew Eileen Yeow - Kau Kau Kou Hung - Cheung Wai Onn Wu Fung - Cheung Tong Sang
Favorite Character: Well at first it was Ng Sin Yu/Ruby Ng/Ah Bee (Charmaine Sheh), as she was really cute and funny, but then towards the end, it changed to Cheung Yee Fai (Roger Kwok), as Ah Bee became my least favorite character. But both of them played their parts well, especially Roger. I've never seen "At the Threshold of an Era I or II" (only bits and pieces) so this was one of the first movies I've seen in him in a long time, and he was very good as Yee Fai. Yee Fai was a good guy too, funny, smart and fun, so he was the kind of guy you could probably like from the beginning till the end =)
Least Favorite Character: At first, it was Wai Onn (Kou Hung). He was so annoying!! He kept on going on about Yee Fai and drinking all these medical stuff and he was SO unreasonable when it came to Wai Yat Siew (Derek Lee). Ugh, he was the dad nobody would like to have! Half the time I wanted to jump at him and strangle his neck!! But later on, that turned to Ah Bee. She was beginning to seem a lot like Wai Onn, annoying and unreasonable. She was so slack to Sum Yuet (Melissa Ng) and kept going to Yee Fai, "Don't leave me here, I need you" in a whiny, sulky voice. Grrr......how could she change so much?!
Overall: I loved this series, but only from 1-4 and parts in the beginning about Kau Kau (Eileen Yeow) and Wai Yat Siew and Yee Fai and Sum Yuet. Those parts were really cute and I loved them. But towards the end, it got pretty boring and annoying. The movie had a great cast, who played their parts really well. =)
