The catch is that he grows ten years every day. The grown boy learns important lessons about life during his time as an adult.

Review:

This is a wonderful movie acted by Andy Lau. A wonderful drama about how to be a man. You can see a great performance by Andy Lau and Karen Mok. And you also can see a great make up team just like in "Love On A Diet". The story very simple. A boy who hated his stepmother one day got some liquid thing from an old botanical man. This liquid thing can make a piece of plant become a very big tree in a short time. When he wake up in the next morning he found himself become an adult. At the beginning, he very happy. But the next day, he found himself older. And when he met the botanical, the botanical man said very wisely. Time can not backward. One thing that we can conclude from the story, manhood have they own consequences, responsibilities and they own pleasure. What a wonderful life.
