I like Chow's old movies made in Hong Kong. They are all with casting with super new actors, brilliant and logical plot, ultra funny. His school undercover movie series are the most memorable. That are classics for most of the Hong Kong people.
This movie, though still full of funny elements, and again super new actors, however, the plot is not rich enough. The story is too simple and one dimensional.
But by watching his new movies I can have the feel of his old movies. The hairstyle of a knife stick on the hair of the female lead with blood, the male snow white..... All remind me of his past movies. His out of frame thinking and shots are simply amazing. It just stimulate your mind to be more creative.
Not a very successful movie, but still worth seeing.
