Plot: Months after his last months firearms case (aka Fight Back To School 1) Sing (Stephen Chow) and Tat (Ng Man-Tat) are giving the choice where to work. Tat chooses the hardest unit - Regional Crime Unit. Sing laughs saying "If you do Regional Crime Unit, I'll go to the Transport Unit!". Yes you've guessed it Sing becomes a Traffic Cop.

The reason why Tat is taking these risks is to impress his new boss, (miss) Inspector Wong (Deannie Yip), strangely enough Inspector Wong is head over heals for Tat! Crazy Aint it?

Now when random british schools are blown up the police have their suspicion that there coming to Hong Kong. The Police believe that the 'Adam Smith Intercontinental School'. The police want to send Tat in as a undercover with some officers to keep a look out.

For Sing....they are transferring him to Tung Lung Island. Practically a deserted island where there is no traffic! Sing flips out and quits his job.

Now Sing signs up for lessons at the college along with some of his friends from Edinburgh College aka Turtle Wong and the crew! So Sing and the crew attend the college to look out for these terrorists. But now he is a rival to the cop's. Tat is undercover as the Head of Discipline and cocky cop Mike (Michael Chow) is undercover as a football student.

As you can predict the Adam Smith School is the next target from these ruthless terrorists.

Review: Now the other subplots of this movie involves the continuing story of the relationship between Sing and Miss Ho (played by Sharla Cheung), this story line is progressing to their wedding plans and Sing meeting his 'in-laws' for the first time.

Another story is Sing developing a crush on a student on his class, I know one minute he's planning his wedding and next he's eyeing up the lovely Sandy Lai (Athena Chu). But Sing knows what he is doing is wrong and attempts to finish this before it gets serious. Even Turtle Wong gets a girl, he is forced to distract Sandy's sister Jacky (Sarah Lee) but the two end up passionately making out! yes I know... crazy!

Notable guest appearances apart from the 'iron lady' Deannie Yip, the late Blacky Ko makes great appearance as a woman beater who gets what's coming to him from both Sing and Tat. James Wong makes a cameo as the class priest who ends up getting smacked by Sing as a result of this Sing gets crucified! Last but not least Spencer Lam makes a brief appearance as the schools Judo teacher!

Flaws? I don't think there is any...maybe if your not a fan of Chows comedy this might not be the best choice of movie for you, but if your a fan of the first movie you'll laugh this one up!

Final thoughts - A fun undercover comedy which should be a fan favorite to all those Stephen Chow fans.

Following the style of the first one, this sequel also puts its focus on action and laugh-deriving elements, which make this another full-of-fun comedy of the '90s. The story is about Sing, who becomes a traffic cop, determined to go undercover again at school to regain his reputation of being a leader of SDU. However, this time he goes to a high-class internatio0nal school and investigates an ammo-smuggling case instead. Added with the complicated love relationships with Athena Chu and Sharla Cheung, both the scenario and slapsticks in the movie make this sequel never a setback of the first one.

After stopping a Triad organization from taking over the school and retrieving his superintendent's revolver, Sing expected to get a promotion. However, a botched interview forced Sing to be demoted and become a traffic cop. His partner in the first mission, Uncle Tat, did get promoted. Sing is tricked into going undercover again as his mission is to stop a group of British terrorists from destroying a school. However, Sing is worried because he made a promise to his fiancee Miss Ho that he would not go undercover again.

Stephen Chow is back as the heroic Chow Sing Sing "Star", or should we say the hysterical Chow. He brings back his persona from Fight Back to School and his regular sparring partner Ng Man-Tat is back in some of his most funny stuff. One in particular is when Tat dresses up like The Terminator and begins destroying bad guys a la T2. Look for some of the other cast from the first film, in particular Gabriel Wong, who returns as Turtle. This time, he helps Chow out going undercover. This is even funnier than the first film and than the sequel, Fight Back to School III. Check it out for the funny antics!!!
