Telephone and Internet frauds are so pervasive in Taiwan that people have become numb and indifferent to such illegal activities. Yet, “Formosa Mambo” draws attention to this social problem in a brilliantly entertaining way.


Likable but over-long and predictable heartwarmer about street hawkers battling big business.

The classic Chinese animated feature film "Uproar in Heaven" is being restored with 3-D special effects and is expected to hit cinemas next January, the New Express Daily reports.
Directed by Wan Laiming in the 1960s,"Uproar in Heaven" earned both domestic and international recognition and received numerous awards.

Director Barbara Wong's tear-jerking romance film, "The Tears" (aka Tears in a Fallen City), held a news conference to mark the beginning of filming on Thursday in Shanghai.
The director was seen at the event with five of the leading actors from her film, namely Zhou Dongyu, Shawn Dou, Aarif Lee, Joe Chen and Richie Ren. (CF)(Sina-slideshow)
