Let's take a hit U.S. movie and try to mimic it while throwing in just enough parody to avoid violation of international copyright law. Hmm...it's refried Basic Instinct, with Chow playing his old role as Sing Sing the supercop, only this time forced into undercover work as Anita Mui's husband, whom he just happens to resemble almost exactly. Some funny scenes--like a disgusting "destruction of evidence" scene from a bedroom murder location, a parody of Chow's "Saint of Gamblers" character from All for the Winners and GoG II and III, and a final fight with the psychobabe who's been committing icepick murders "just like that hit Hollywood movie"...Anita Mui is capable in her slapstick role as a somewhat besmirched, sorta lesbian socialite. Just OK.
