Winners and Sinners
Teapot, Curly, Windpipe, Vaseline, and Ranks are a band of bumbling thieves who try to clean up their act by starting a janitorial service. They run afoul of a pair of gangsters when they find a briefcase containing counterfeit money. Made in response to the popular ACES GO PLACES series, WINNERS AND SINNERS is the opening salvo in a series of seven LUCKY STARS films, though the film is only loosely related to the other six. Directed by Sammo Hung, the film lays down the precedents for the other films: the five Lucky Stars are teamed with one beautiful female (in this case, Cherie Chung) whom they each try to grope and woo; the film then climaxes in a slapstick showdown with cartoonish villains. WINNERS AND SINNERS marks the second time in which Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, and Yuen Biao--the three "kung-fu-teers"--appear together. Though Chan is not the star, he has an exciting action sequence in which he roller-skates through traffic. Comedic high points include a spirited rendition of Rod Stewart's "Young Turks" and an invisibility gag later mimicked in MYSTERY MEN.

The Prodigal Son [DVD]
Leung Chang (Yuen Biao) is a spoiled son who thinks he is the baddest kung fu master around--until he is pounded in a fight with an effeminate Wing Chun master (Lam Ching-Ying) who plays a girl in a traveling Peking Opera troupe. Realizing that his father has been paying his opponents to lose, Leung begs to become the Wing Chun master's student. The master, however, doesn't agree to teach Leung until another spoiled son appears--a Manchu noble seeking to test his fighting skills. THE PRODIGAL SON is one of the earliest films with Yuen Biao in a lead role. The film helped Yuen, one of the most talented acrobats of his generation, attain a stardom nearly equal to that of his "brothers," Jackie Chan and director Sammo Hung. For Hung, THE PRODIGAL SON is his second film to depict the Wing Chun fighting system (the first was WARRIORS TWO); both films are considered classics in Wing Chun cinema. Hung appears in THE PRODIGAL SON as a portly master of long-form Wing Chun; in comic asides, Hung also demonstrates two new martial arts forms, calligraphy kung fu and toiletry kung fu.

Hong Kong director Herman Yau (THE UNTOLD STORY) tips his hat to the master of suspense with an existential thriller exploring Hitchockian themes of madness and identity. Happily married Man (Christy Chung) is celebrating her third wedding anniversary to Lok (Alex Fong) when she receives a sinister video warning her of impending doom. At first dismissing the tape as a harmless prank, Man nonetheless finds its admonitions coming true when she awakens from a horrible car accident to discover that her identity has been usurped by Lok's secretary Fiona (Sasha Hou). With no one who remembers her, Man is now forced to singlehandedly unravel the mystery of her new reality--or face an irreversible descent into madness.

Touch and Go [DVD]
Action director Ringo Lam, who had previously directed comedies but had since infused the action genre with real drama and social concerns with CITY ON FIRE, returned halfway with TOUCH AND GO. There's a lot of action, but it is all done with tongue planted firmly in cheek. The star, Sammo Hung, a very popular actor in such Hong Kong kung fu films as DRAGONS FOREVER, plays Fat Goose, a noodle stall worker who has the misfortune of witnessing a Mafia murder. He is convinced by the police to do his civic duty and testify in court against a known Triad member. The police promise to protect him from mob reprisals but fail to do so, and he is left to defend himself. Hung, who stages and choreographs his own fight scenes, has a deft comic touch that includes a lot of silly gags along with the violence. The resulting style is more like a Jackie Chan film, in which realism is often jettisoned in favor of entertainment. The plot, which could be a serious indictment of the incompetence and corruption of the Royal Hong Kong Police, is played for laughs instead. After this effort, which is very much a Sammo Hung film, Lam returned to his own brand of stylized realism in his portrayal of crime and violence with the hit FULL CONTACT.

Encounters of the Spooky Kind (Import) [DVD]
Sammo Hung plays Courageous Cheung, a cuckolded husband who faces a series of supernatural challenges from his wife's wealthy lover. First, Cheung must survive a night in a house haunted by a bloodthirsty vampire. From there, things just get worse--and more comical. For those unfamiliar with the Chinese horror genre, the film is a Mr. Toad's Wild Ride through the supernatural mythology and folklore of China: Hopping corpses, supernatural possession by a monkey god, the gratuitous sacrifice of a chicken, and lots of chanting by Taoist priests will all seem pretty trippy. For Chinese viewers in the early 1980s, the film was unusual in other ways: Director Sammo Hung mixed comedy, martial arts, and supernatural horror into this bouillabaise of a film, establishing the genre of kung-fu horror comedy. Several films in the genre followed, including the popular MR. VAMPIRE series and many films with the word "spooky" in their titles, including Hung's SPOOKY, SPOOKY and ENCOUNTERS OF THE SPOOKY KIND 2, a sequel in name only.

Jet Li stars in this kung fu fantasy whose circuitous plot, adapted from a story by Yin Jong, boasts such delirious developments as kung-fu cannibals, evil nuns, invincible heroes, and killer autoharps. Li plays Mo Kei, a young man born into the conflict between two warring factions who are each trying to obtain the To Lung and the Yee Tin, two swords which, when possessed by the same owner, will render that person the the Supreme Master of Martial Arts. Featuring fantastic images, such as an old kung fu wizard who occupies a giant living sphere, and amazing wire fu battle scenes, KUNG FU MASTER is an often confusing, exhilarating, and entertaining movie.

My Lucky Stars [DVD]
Because the success of the first LUCKY STARS film (WINNERS AND SINNERS) had a lot to do with the Japanese market, the second film in the series takes place in the land of the rising sun and features Michiko Nishiwaki, the Japanese female bodybuilder. Jackie Chan plays an undercover cop who solicits the help of his gang of childhood friends--the five Lucky Stars, each of whom specializes in petty crimes and minor mishaps--to help him catch Japanese gangsters. Dough-faced Eric Tsang replaces John Sham as one of the Lucky Stars, while Sibelle Hu plays the femme du jour and the object of the Lucky Stars' lust. The film features several notable fights, including a surreal sequence in which Chan rumbles in an outlandish amusement park costume; in another memorable fight, director Sammo Hung battles in a yellow jumpsuit, à la Bruce Lee's GAME OF DEATH. The fantastic showdown at a haunted house attraction pits the Lucky Stars against a stellar cast of opponents: Hu versus Nishiwaki, Hung versus Lau Kar-wing, Yuen Biao versus Lam Ching-ying, and Chan versus Dick Wei.
