Irreversi - Mei Melançon (2010) - Hung Hom Promenade, Kowloon

This is the location where Lynda starts to get pain in her stomach following the day out at the beach.

Irreversi - Mei Melançon (2010) - Shek O Beach, Hong Kong

This is the beach where the couple go to rekindle their relationship. The recognisable shape of Ng Fan Chau, the small island off the coast, can be seen in the baskground.

Irreversi - Mei Melançon (2010) - Sai Ying Pun Community Complex, High Street

The bin where Adam dumps his trash was located on High Street in front of the SYP Community Complex. You may remember this as the orphange where Van Damme was dropped off as a baby at the beginning of Double Impact.

Irreversi - Mei Melançon (2010) - Nga Tsin Long Road, Kowloon City

The establishing shot for where Adam goes to buy his taxidermy chemicals is Nga Tsin Long Road in Kowloon City. It looks as though the Cambo Pho restaurant seen in the image below is still around.

Irreversi - Mei Melançon (2010) - IFC Walkway, Central

This is the pedestrian walkway that connects the large IFC development with the Central Ferry Piers elevated walkway and Pier 3. This is where Lynda and her bestie, Kat, have a heart to heart about Lynda's marriage.

Irreversi - Mei Melançon (2010) - 1 Chatham Path, Central Mid-levels

The next location is quite a historical one. In the film's plot it is a unique house designed by renowned Chinese architect "E.L Xiong" but in reality it is the equally renowned and thankfully still around  (for the time being) 1 Chatham Path. The house was built in 1927 by John Caer Clark as a private residence, but between 1952 and 1973 operated as an exclusive private school. The building is currently owned by Sino Land and is still listed as a residential property up for lease if you have the wonga. 

In the film, Adam knows it's Lynda's favourite building in Hong Kong and he sneakily buys it for her as a surprise. A significant amount of filming was done at the property and I have far too many screencaps to include, but here are some better ones.

Irreversi - Mei Melançon (2010) - Victoria Peak Garden, The Peak

Adam (Ian Bohen) wants to surprise Lynda (Mei Melançon) and takes her to a riding stables where he has hidden an engagement ring amongst the folds of one of the horse's manes. The opening shot shows a signboard that says "The Peak Stable". Of course, this doesn't really exist and the location on screen is the Victoria Peak Garden. It looks a bit different these days because the central flower garden section has been redesigned and the centre of the square now contains a small pavilion.

I also realised (after already publishing this post) that the final funeral service scene was also filmed at the same location. If you go to the right hand side of the above location, that side of the garden serve as the cemetery with some rather not-so-convincing gravestones stuck into the ground - the scene reminded me a bit of the one from Infernal Affairs. The peak in the background is the top of High West.

Irreversi - Mei Melançon (2010) - The Cairnhill, Tsuen Wan

It's getting increasingly difficult to get hold of copies of some films but thankfully I have managed to procure a copy of Irreversi. Apparently shot in 2006 (but released in 2010) it was made back-to-back with a Chinese version (called Hui Lu) that is the same story reshot with a full Chinese cast. The story revolves around a woman (Mei Melançon) whose brother has recently been killed in a parachuting 'accident' and is swept off her feet by her brother's business partner (Ian Bohen) who has just sold their company and made a fortune. However, things don't quite appear to be as they seem. I haven't seen the Chinese version but am assuming it uses the same locations as this English one? If you know any different then feel free to let me know. Despite the film's age, its website is still around: http://www.irreversi.com/

One of the first proper locations to appear in the film is the couple's pre-wealth condominium apartment which was filmed at a development called "The Cairnhill". It's located at the southern end of Route Twisk and is seperated into two main sections. You can see the link road between the two in the lower screencap.
