Tony Leung and Kent Cheng play professional thieves (but nice ones,as after heisting coats from a fur warehouse, they give it to the homeless). Anthony Wong is Cheap Chan, a weasly man with a drooling problem, who hires them to steal a Garfield stuffed toy. Turns out a little ghost boy named Bobo is guarding Garfield but as Tony Leung and his friend discovers why, they join forces with Bobo. This one is slightly charming if not utterly farcical. There's some supernatural situations ala Poltergeist and GhostBusters but is basically a feel-good comedy. Little Bobo is a cute child actor, Tony Leung and Kent Cheng seem to work comfortably together, and chameleon Anthony Wong once again hams it up.
