Synopsis
Man Kei Chin directs this Category III exploitation flick. Young child Peach Chui is curious about sex, especially after she discovers an adult video in her parents' VCR, but no one will give her an honest answer about the act. One day, she along with a school chum ventures to the Sacred Tree and wishes to be an adult. The next day, Peach (Jane Chung Chun) wakes up ten years older, in the body of a voluptuous, physically mature adult. Looking to sate her curiosity, she charms her swim teacher, Danny (Jimmy Wong Shu-kei), with her good looks and sheer naïveté. After learning how to kiss from her sister, she decides to have sex with the confused lad. Unfortunately, Danny's jealous ex-girlfriend learns about Peach and plots to foil their tête-à-tête. Shu Qi appears in the beginning and end of this film in a bikini. ~ Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide

This film could never have been made in the U.S. by rpmfla May 20, 2005 - 11:53 AM PDT

Somehow, if this had been made in the USA, it would've ended up as either some Disneyfied morality tale totally devoid of sexuality/eroticism or just the opposite... an adolescent sleezeball comedy.

I really enjoyed it because it maintained a humorous, playful, fairytale quality even during the more adult scenes. Sexuality is dealt with as part of life...nothing more, nothing less.

Recommended to those with an open mind who don't label everything dealing with sexuality/nudity as dirty.
