Can feel that they wanted to use a lot of super stars to show in this movie, but how laugh-able is this movie? Not really, as i feel most of the parts are quite boring and stupid instead... Won't consider to watch it again...

One of the Chinese New Year movie in 1998, i have watched it a few times before, but decided to rewatch it again as i kinda miss Jacklyn Wu lately. She has left the acting industry and own her own company now. This should be the only movie she acted with Leslie Cheung, kinda funny. Overall its still ok, but not gonna watch it again so fast... maybe few years later~

L² Comment:

Oh Lord, all these well i have been a fans of "All's Well, End's Well" series, but definitely not the 2012 version. The 2 marks i gave is for Sandra Ng & Kristal Tin. Both of them are good in their part and they are the only one who makes me laugh. 

Donnie Yen is definitely making a big fool of himself in this movie; Kelly Chen as usual - bad in her acting; Lynn Xiong not much of a blame - model really can't act!!!; Louis Koo, oh please, i'm gonna write him off from my idol list soon; Chapman To, pathetic!!! As for Raymond Wong, i really hope he stop producing all these rubbish movie!!! Where has all his good movie gone? !!!! I'm frustrated now :(

L² Comment:

When they film this movie, it stated clearly that this will be the 6th movie of the "Happy Ghost" series, but it is so different from the original 5 movies, Raymond Wong is no more the happy ghost, then what point stating this as the "Happy Ghost" series?

Back to the storyline, it is a bit childish and very predictable. The only excellent part is when Wu Jing fought with Wu Chun, the rest is just so so...

I kinda like Barbara Wong's movie, except this. The storyline is ok, not like those normal drama style but i really dislike how the way the actors perform, no heart at all!!! Especially the "farmer" & "I love you boyz"... i feel like slapping at their face~

This film hit the 2nd place in Hong Kong Blockbuster during 1992. As a chinese new year celebration film, it definitely earn much. Well, with so many huge celebrities inside, why can't it? Right?

Love the part where Stephen Chow and Maggie Cheung kiss in a Paris' Eiffel Tower pose, so damn hilarious. Teresa Mo and Leslie Cheung? Haha~ i remember Leslie once swore that he will not become gay if Teresa Mo ever promised to married him at that time. A very good comedy for a lazy weekend :)
