7cb1d79195 Kidstuff has been asked by the police to investigate a case of international ammunition trade between two gangs. One of the gangs is the Japanese Yakuza in possession of stolen diamonds, and the other is a group of terrorists with a stockpile of ammunition. This is the kind of movie which is very common to see in 80&#39;s made-in-Hongkong films. No in-depth discussion, everything is plain and clear to understand. Actors/actresses always try to do something unfunny to make us laugh. And yes, they all master Kung-fu and kick bad guys&#39; ass.<br/><br/>To me, the most impressive part of this movie, is this gorgeous babe &quot;Yum Yum&quot;(a character by Maria Tung Ling). I even think they produced this movie just to show us her cute face and big behind.<br/><br/>After all, it is not quite worth your time. But if you are on summer holiday and can&#39;t find too much things to do. It&#39;s still not bad to take a look at how these dudes poke Yum Yum&#39;s boobs. First off no Jackie Chan or Biao Yuen. Secondly, apart from Sammo Hung, the original &#39;lucky stars&#39; appear for only five minutes. Which is justwellthis is a real turkey. It&#39;s a pity Samo didn&#39;t have the same foresightthe others.<br/><br/>Basically it&#39;s the same plotthe other films in the series. The police mess up an undercover operation, so bizarrely they turn to Samo Hung and his unlawful for help. It&#39;s still unclear why the police would recruit five con men to help them. Samo asks his pals but they&#39;re not interested so he has to recruit five new lucky stars. Five hopeless policemen (including a young Andy Lau). They then proceed to share a house, bicker amongst themselves, a beautiful female cop moves in to train them whilst they play tricks on her to get her into bed. <br/><br/>This is supposed to be a comedy but it&#39;s mind-numbingly and shockingly unfunny. Jokes in bad taste like domestic violence against a wife, rape of a 50 year old housekeeper, a bizarre game of Russian roulette, even an Alsatian dog gets shot. It&#39;s pretty dire. The first half hour of the film is particularly painful watch. I cannot help but think Samo Hung must be throughly ashamed and embarrassed of this film. <br/><br/>The only two scenes worth watching is when we first meet Andy Lau during a combat training exercise in an abandoned building and the fight scene at the end with the young Japanese villain. Also a small scene where Samo has a fight in a padded cell.<br/><br/>Other than that this film is pure garbage.
