Cocktail is a 2006 Hong Kong film produced and directed by Herman Yau and Long Ching.
[1] Candy, a pensive character, owns the fashionable Hong Kong bar Half Mortal.
After she gives a bartender job to Paul, her part-time employee Stella, a psychology student, teaches him.
[2] The South China Morning Post called the film "a mild melodrama about the romances of urban twentysomethings" and a "dramatic comed[y] aimed at teens".
[3][4] In a Hong Kong Film Critics Society review, the film critic wrote, "As for Cocktail, although the content is relatively cliché and some scenes are a bit sensational, regarding the part of it dealing with the relationship between father and son, I personally think it is better than After This Our Exile.
