Chinaman (Kinamand)

Mar 06, 2005 12:00 a.m. - Variety.com

Film Reviews: According to "Chinaman," the trick with love is never knowing how to say you’re sorry. Cliched plot posits a Danish plumber who agrees to wed a Chinese woman for cash, even though neither speaks a word of the other’s lingo. Wouldn’t you know it, they fall for each other anyway. Sugary sweet tone of first half gives way to sour, would-be tragic finale that may leave a bad taste in the mouth for some auds, especially femmes, although some addicted to the romantic equivalent of MSG might savor this. Pic opens domestically in early April.
