Truth or Dare
Release date: February 14
How hard is it to find that special person? And how difficult is for us to believe someone when they utter the L-word to us? Directed by up-and-coming director Ma Zhiyu, Truth or Dare boasts a cast full of established stars, including Wen Zhang, Miao Pu, Qin Hailu, Lee Wei and Huang Weide.
The story concerns two eligible bachelors who hold separate parties in the same town where the partygoers play a game of "truth or dare."
At first, Xu Chengkang (Huang Weide) meets aspiring actress You Mei (Meng Li) during the game. Meanwhile across town, rich young man Wang Ben (Wen Zhang) meets and falls for taekwondo practitioner Tang Fei (Miao Pu).
However, it ultimately transpires that our protagonists are deceiving these women - but in very different ways.
It is obvious that this low-budget movie is desperate to reproduce the success of Love is Not Blind in 2011. With an investment of less than 10 million yuan, Love is Not Blind managed to recoup 300 million yuan at the box office, helping lead actor Wen Zhang to become an A-list actor overnight.
