Stephen Chow Stephen Chow Stephen Chow... Where do I even begin. The New King of Comedy does have the signature Stephen Chow humour, but is definitely not on par with his previous works. It pains me to see that his dazzle is truly peeling off. This work feels like an insult to the original King of Comedy which produced so many classic lines and plots that are ingrained into a generation of movie goers, and nothing in this film is even close to matching that. As the plot unravels, things don't seem congruent or match up and the funny bits feels more awkward than enjoyable. Even so, I look forward to his future works, no matter how bad, his signature slapstick style of humour is something that I grew up with and I'm willing to give him as many attempts as possible.
