Because I had read some bad reviews, I didn't expect much of it. And indeed of you expect something like 'mad monkey kung fu', Jackie Chan's 'Drunken Master' or something like 'Moon Warriors' with Andy Lau, you will be disappointed. But if you like the 'old school' fighting and have an open mind for new things, you must see this one! Lau Kar Leung and Lau Kar Fai are as usual; in one word great, and Chi Tin Sang and Yam Tat Wah (you can't call this a cameo!!!) do know how to fight too. I found only one or two weak (sentimental) spots in this movie. Over all it's a very fine example of 'comedy kung fu' in the nineties.
Oops: Two times a car that couldn't be there in 1911 Neonlights, don't think they were used then. A photoslide of a MG motorcar, lit by backlight. And perhaps, much more........
