L² Comment:  

This is Stephen Chow first movie, and the one and only serious movie without any comedy inside. I kinda like it but seeing him being throw here and there was kinda not his style. No wonder he rather be a joker and goes into the comedy, which he is a big success on it.

 Story:

 Loy is a 41-year-old bachelor who lives with his widowed mother and aunt in Wan Chai. Loy's mother, disappointed by his bachelorhood, often sets up match-making lunches for him with various girls. On the other side of Hennessy, orphaned Oi Lin lives with and works for her uncle and aunt in a bathroom appliances store on Lockhart Road. She is in a relationship with Xu, who is in prison. Her uncle, who disapproves of Xu, sets up a match-making lunch for her and Loy. Neither Loy or Oi Lin are attracted to one another, but the families continue to set up meetings for the two. After a few meetings and dates, the two eventually strike up a friendship after discovering a mutual interest in detective stories.

Both Loy and Oi Lin's families misunderstand the newfound friendship as romance and begin discussing wedding banquet arrangements. Loy explains to his mother this is not the case, and that Oi Lin has a boyfriend. Annoyed, Loy's mother calls Oi Lin's aunt and yells at her, calling her and her husband cheats. Oi Lin becomes upset with Loy, and breaks off their friendship. During this time she shares a flat with her boyfriend Xu, who has just been released from prison, and Loy gets back together with his ex-girlfriend Man Yu.

As time passes, Loy and Oi Lin grow increasingly uneasy about their relationships with Man Yu and Xu respectively. Loy tells Man Yu that he is finally in love with someone, but does not know if he is good enough for her. In the meantime, Oi Lin breaks up with Xu. Furious, Xu tracks down Loy and beats him up. Loy, though severely injured and no match for Xu, claims he is the better man because he can make Oi Lin smile. Xu finally understands, and leaves Oi Lin to get on with her life.

Loy's mother finally marries her accountant at the Cotton Tree Drive Marriage Registry to everyone's delight. After the wedding, Loy goes to the Cha Chaan Teng (where he'd previously had a date with Oi Lin) and finds Oi Lin. He joins her there, and the two enjoy the afternoon together.

 Hmm. how should i express my feeling after this movie? Its definitely not a romance movie; not a comedy... i can only categtorize it as a drama type. Love all of them, feel like all the actors & actresses have their own acting style, but all these styles just mix together and created a sparks~ A nice movie to watch...

Sorry to say that, this should be the worst kam yung movie ever!!! The storyline has been twisted so much from the original and yet the movie is not even nice. Though Sharla carry much more comedy side in this film, but i think its sucks.

Yuck, too much Sharla Cheung's movie make me wanna puke now :(

The Untold Story 八仙飯店之人肉叉燒飽

Released Year: 1993
Directed by 邱礼涛 Herman Chow

Casted by:
黃秋生 Anthony Wong as 王志恆/ 陳子良 Hang
李修賢 Danny Lee as 李Sir Lee
關寶慧 Emily Kwan as 小寶 Bao
劉兆銘 Liu Zhao Min as 鄭臨 Lam
成奎安 Sing Kwai An as 鄭鉢 Buu
李華月 Julie Lee as 會計小姐 Receptionist
Story:

The story opens with Wong Chi Hang fleeing the Hong Kong police, who are after him for murder. He winds up in Macau, where he takes a job as a cook at the 8 Immortals restaurant. After getting busted for cheating at a game of Mah Jong, Wong kills the owner and the family, taking over the restaurant himself. Meanwhile, the police, led by Officer Lee are called out to a local beach. It seems that a bag of decomposing body parts has washed ashore.

The police begin to suspect Wong has both something to do with the washed up body parts and the disappearance of the family. Wong continues to gleefully murder any of his employees who suspect what might be going on . . . disposing of their bodies in a most interesting way. Wong is captured near the middle of the film and placed in jail.

The cops need a confession, so they place him in a cell with a relative of one of his victims in the hopes that he can beat it out of Wong. The prison scenes are just as disturbing as the murders that have occurred earlier in the film - perhaps more so. What makes them truly unsettling is not merely the violence, but the fact that the viewer begins to sympathize with Wong. It's hard to watch him suffer at the hands of the police and the felons around him and not feel some kind of empathy, despite the fact that he's a brutal murderer . . . and therein lies the true strength of this film.

L² Comment:

This movie is based on a true story which happen in Macau during 1985. The whole movie is very violence and bloody~ Anthony Wong definitely did a great job for bringing this psycho character out from the movie, therefore this has won him the best actor in the Hong Kong Film Awards.

The pace is not bad, except the part when the police try to solve the case, it looks dumb actually. And the way they torture the suspect is really over too, whether its true or not... it's indirectly warn us not to do bad things and go inside jail... lol~ They have film total of 3 movies from this... i'm so gonna search for the other 2...
