The
Skinny: |
Unnecessary
and completely forgettable cinematic material from Wong Jing,
king of disposable film. Chung Chun completists should look
for this film, but do Chung Chun completists actually exist? |

Review
by Kozo: |
Wacked
out horror/laffer from the team of Billy Tang and Wong Jing
features Michael Tao and Lai Yiu-Cheung as a pair of daffy
cops who get mixed up in a ghostly karaoke bar. Once upon
a time, said karaoke bar burned down, taking twenty-seven
people with it. Now they're out for revenge, which means bad
things for karaoke patrons and the theater audience, who could
never be blamed if they happened to walk out of this useless
production. Basically a time filler for the bored, this lazy
production really accomplishes nothing that hasn't been seen
before. Even worse, the ever-present comedy proves to be lame
and annoying. Michael Tao and Lai Yiu-Cheung spend their time
mugging, while Fruit is Swelling girl Chung Chun shows
up as a sweet ghost who develops a thing for Lai Yiu-Cheung.
Monica Chan co-stars as their superior officer, who manages
to find the time to get down with Michael Tao instead of performing
law-enforcement related duties. The IIB rating is sure to
upset fans of Category III starlet Chung Chun. This movie
can be sporadically funny, but seeking it out would only risk
disappointment and anguish. (Kozo 1997) |
