Cast Member: Lam Ching-Ying

Newcomers will enjoy the fight action, the slightly more experienced will also appreciate the comedy and the veteran viewer will be entertained by the great cast.

Though it’s not in the same league as the Michael Hui hits it tries to emulate, ‘Money Crazy’ is still reasonably entertaining and certainly better than Woo’s other ventures into the genre.

This is the definitive comedy horror, which coupled with Sammo Hung’s own ‘Encounter Of The Spooky Kind’ provide the two greatest examples of the genre, and therefore should not be missed.

Not a waste of time by any means, and certainly a nice addition to the main stars filmographies, however, it is certainly not up to the standard of its ground breaking prequel.

This is a worthy purchase for fans of the genre, and the minimal action is well handled and true to the spirit of the genre.

If you’re a fan of Hong Kong comedies then this one certainly delivers the goods and you’ll also be rewarded with a couple of hard-hitting action scenes along the way.

Anyone searching for a traditional kung-fu flick that is filled with sublime choreography need look no further than this.

‘Pom Pom And Hot Hot’ is a film where a fast forward button is a necessity. Too much of the film is bogged down in very tired routines that drastically slow down the pace.

If the rest of the film had been as good as the last half hour then ‘Prince of the Sun’ would be more fondly remembered.

Helmed by the then prolific Lo Wei and giving Wong Tao an early leading role, ‘Slaughter in San Francisco’ is some often cheesy but action-packed old school martial arts action.

The cast is packed with the usual gallery of stars that one associates with a Sammo production and of course the action (when it happens) is expertly choreographed by the man himself.

Despite never straying towards originality and unlikely to win awards, there’s still an admirable mixture of action and drama to commend.
