| Stephen Chow as the Tricks Master Jing Koo is a character ridiculously well suited for him as the sky's the limit when it comes to conjuring up gags. With Wong Jing directing and playing alongside Ng Man Tat and Andy Lau, he does so in his dry, low-key and highly excessive ways. Watch Chow sneakily destroy and fool people, done the legendary I Am Naked suit and feature the always great gag of large amounts of people beating up one. It's often hilarious and Andy Lau doesn't seem to mind being subjected to all kinds of silliness either. An early 90s joy that is disrupted a few times too many however when Wong Jing attempts to inject his humour into the film. Not only does it rank as distasteful and low but when he lifts a gag from Police Academy 2, you'll know who is the actual king of comedy in the production. Co-starring Rosamund Kwan, Chingmy Yau, Waise Lee, John Ching, Liu Fan, Shing Fui On, Charlie Cho and Wong Jing. |
