Baffling. Watching this with a friend was hysterical, but only because we could hardly believe what was happening. Can't see myself watching it twice, but I would like more people to know about it. Chinese comedy has always been exaggerated from my point of view, and this film like converting The Three Stooges into animation and then back to live action again without relinquishing any of the gags that animation made possible. This movie throws everything at the wall, picks up what doesn't stick and throws it again till it does. It's comedy by attrition.

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.
