After Chinese Odysessy I & II, I thought both Stephen Chow and Jeff Lau have gone away from the comedy into a more serious realm. Thank God I was wrong. Out of the Dark was a lot of fun. The initial scenes which set up the mood of the film was almost classic, and Stephen's entrance was a deadpan Leon from the Professional. A great supporting cast. Karen Mok continues to surprise me. There were, unlike From China with Love or Chinese Odysessy, moments where the classic Stephen Chow trademark MO LE TAU I have come to expect from Stephen Chow. All and all, though, not for everybody. More of what Sixty Million Dollar Man should have been like.
