Due West: Our Sex Journey is a 2012 Hong Kong 3-D erotica film directed and written by Mark Wu, starring Justin Cheung, Gregory Wong, Celia Kwok, Jeana Ho, and Daniella Wang.[1][2] It is based on the erotic novel entitled Dongguan Wood, first published as a series of online stories by pseudonymous author Xiang Xi Murakami Haruki.[3] The film premiered in Hong Kong on September 20, 2012.

Cast

Release

The film was released on September 20, 2012 in Hong Kong, Australia, and New Zealand. In an unusual distribution decision, some "women-only" exhibitions were scheduled in Hong Kong.[4]

Reception

Variety's Richard Kuipers called the film "a reasonably amusing 'American Pie'-like account of a randy Hong Kong teenager’s sexual awakening [that] . . . gradually becomes flaccid as its protag enters adulthood".[4] Derek Elley of Film Business Asia thought the film was better directed than Wu's previous efforts and "well-staged", with "lots of t&a, lots of harmless softcore sex, and lots of juvenile Cantonese comedy".[3]
