An out-of-work Chinese American actor involved with a high school girl learns that he has inherited his grandmother's home in Shanghai, China. He moves to the exotic city to connect with his ancestry and start a new life, but must leave behind the only girl who has ever loved him.
Liam (Ken Leung) is a struggling actor wasting his time picking up on beautiful, plastic girls in hip Hollywood bars with his buddy, Joe (Joel David Moore), a writer who hasn't written a damn thing. The closest thing to an emotional connection in Liam's life is a flirtatious friendship with 16 year old Adelaide (Hayden Panettiere), a precocious high school girl who is actually more mature than Liam.
When Liam learns he has inherited his grandmother's home in Shanghai, China, he travels to the bright and beautiful city and discovers a profound connection to his family legacy. Liam meets a sophisticated Chinese woman named Micki (Kelly Hu) and finds himself falling into instant infatuation with her. Liam decides to move to China, leaving behind Adelaide who is quite possibly the only girl who has ever loved him, but running away from his problems only lands him in deeper trouble.

I had fairly low expectations of this after just reading the plot but really enjoyed watching it. It's quite humorous in places and the story was great. ... read more »
