LEH - This painfully unfunny "comedy" might be the worst Hong Kong movie ever. You'll be prepared to KILL for a fast-forward button! This is even sadder since it features some good actors and about five minutes worth of truly imaginative action sequences (probably filmed by another director). Apart from that, though, it is the most aimless, plotless and dull Hong Kong movie I've seen.
BRD - I actually kind of enjoyed this one. Yes, the plot wasn't much, but the special effects weren't that bad, and the humor wasn't as lame as e.g. The Eight Hilarious Gods. I wasn't expecting anything much, and I got more than I expected.
JT - This Wong Jing effort is chock full o'stars, which makes it a little hard to follow considering there are so many subplots going on. But basically Mo Kake (Damien Lau) is Heaven's Sword, who before his marriage to Ching Sze (Michelle Yeoh), defeats Super Sword (Simon Yam) in battle, with the aid of "Greatest Drug" given to him by Ghost Doctor (Ng Man-Tat). Super Sword however vows to return three years later to defeat him. Meanwhile, the "Greatest Drug" side effects are making Mo Kake insane AND horny. Mo Kake ends up sleeping for (appropriately) three years but wakes up weak and unsuitable for battle. So Ghost Doctor must find the Yuen Tin Sword Book which would train seven virgins on how to defeat Super Sword. Now who will be the seven virgins?? There isn't a whole lot of training going on as much as wooing, flirting and utter silliness. It is in great Wong Jing tradition this movie is made which combines wire stunt work, comedy and drama in one huge ball. The costumes are beautiful, the slapstick plenty and everyone seems to be having fun so you may as well too.
