One of the strangest, most potentially disturbing comedies you'll ever see

Apparently, I'm the only person who has seen (or will admit to having seen) a film called - in the English translation of its' title - TALK TO ME DICKY. Such is life. I spotted this in the local video store and couldn't pass it up - two police detectives, stumped in a rape investigation, train their penises to communicate telepathically with the minds of suspects in the case, getting at some sort of ultimate truth. 

What to say about this one? Welll - potentially offensive, silly (very, very silly - I can't imagine how many takes of some scenes must have been required for the cast to get through it without laughing), so bizarre it borders upon surrealism, wooden (ahem) acting - there are laughs aplenty, many perhaps not intended. As b-movies go, this is five-star garbage.

The subtitles, which are white in an extremely bright movie, are useless through large chunks of this one. Should you decide to rent this one, it really isn't going to matter all that much.

Cantonese cinema from Hong Kong is globally recognized for its action films, martial arts epics, and romantic melodramas. Its innovation in choreography, editing, and atmosphere continues to set new standards for genre filmmaking.

The comedy genre refers to a category of entertainment that aims to amuse and entertain audiences by using humor, wit, and comedic situations. Comedies are created with the primary intention of eliciting laughter and providing lighthearted enjoyment.
