The
Skinny: |
Oh,
this is a phenomenally bad movie. It looks like it cost 25
cents to make, but it's probably worth a lot less than that. |

Review
by Kozo: |
This wannabe actioner suffers from
a plethora of lousy everything. It’s an SDU movie, but our
stars get kicked out of the squad only twenty minutes into
the picture. Then, they open a Karaoke bar. That's right:
they secure a loan, get that liquor license, and set up the
microphones and television screens so their customers can
enjoy a fine evening of Karaoke. It's that kind of movie.
So Chi-Wai and Wong Ka-Nok are the
main cops, with Joe Junior as their leader. Law Kar-Ying plays
a wealthy man who uses the ex-cops to get back his kidnapped
daughter. Hilary Tsui is on board as a Vietnamese girl that
So Chi-Wai loves.
This movie is a total snoozer. I
fell asleep twice trying to make it through this lame excuse
for an action picture. I pity Hilary Tsui, an actress who’s
capable of more but can’t seem to get a break. Also, Edmond
So has some potential but he shows little here. Law Kar-Ying
can be very good, but here he’s not. And the use of Stevie
Wonder’s “I Just Called to Say I Love You” is criminally embarrassing.
If you didn't hate the song before, you will now. Yu Rong-Guang
is in this for just one minute! Probably the worst film of
the year. (Kozo 1997) |
