| Overview: | As soon as Tony Leung, hair shiny with brill-cream, starts imitating the stilted dialogue of sixties heartthrob Lui Kei, film lovers know they've entered a charmed circle of movie in-jokes and self-conscious world. Bobo Fung parodies herself as a female Robin Hood who is still living in the golden a-go-go era. This has taken all the references from the Golden Age of Cantonese cinema and becomes a combination of different genres of Hong Kong movies with a series of period pop songs. The movie becomes an overnight classic cult comedy and one of Lau's masterpieces.
