Cheap and cheerful Chow Sing Chi film that’s more or less fun all the way through (unlike some of his films).

Actually, I like the small-scale nature of this film. Chow goes undercover at a Hong Kong school to recover a stolen police revolver. No drug plots, no threats of world domination, just a police revolver.

Ng Man-Tat is on hand as usual as another undercover agent (faking Parkinson’s disease, in the film’s only off-colour gag). I’m sure there’s some things I’m missing with Chow “Mou Lei Tau”-ing all over the place, but my Cantonese is nowhere near good enough to tell for sure.

The opening scene’s a killer. Really funny.
