A little bit different from the original novel, but basically its still good in 1994. A lot of exploding scene which is quite costly for this film. And Bridget Lin still looks glamorous.

Personally, i prefer the first movie of the storm series. It is much more better than this one. Should be call this the storm poser instead of the storm warriors. I think the actor who has the most dialogue would be Simon Yam instead of Ekin Cheng and Aaron Kwok. One word, dissapointed

L² Comment:

Love this film. It shows the different kind of love happening in HK. Wong Hei was young and juicy at that time. All Andrew, Almen, Ben & Wong Hei showed their nice ass to the audience which make a good credit to the film. Kinda erotic when the scenes goes back and forth during 2 sex scenes which involve Andrew and Almen & Ben and Wong Hei. 2 thumbs up.

Story:

Erik and Cooze are attending their first year at college, the campus overflowing with hot girls and BETA house parties. Erik is no longer with Tracy, his girlfriend in the last film, as she has left him for her ex-boyfriend. Fate, however, intervenes, and Erik meets a girl named Ashley in the coed bathrooms, courtesy of his more party prone, sex crazed cousin Dwight. Things seem to be going well for him during this brief introduction.

Erik met his roommate and future BETA brother Bobby. Erik is fairly grossed out as Bobby is having sex with his girlfriend, Margie right before his eyes whilst cooking bratwurst and engaging Erik in the awkward "gettin' to know you stage."

To become a BETA members, the boys go through a long list of trials to get into the Beta fraternity; for example getting their asses signed by a stripper and placing a live ostrich in the GEEK fraternity house. It is only after they complete their final task which involves stealing something from the GEEK house that Edgar, the GEEKS president, challenges the BETAs to the Greek olympiad. The loser, as a result, will give up their charter and be evicted from their house.

It is revealed beforehand by Rock, Dwight's former nemesis, that due to an altercation between Edgar and a sheep Rocks entire fraternity was kicked off campus. When the BETAS and GEEKs reach the final challenge, they use Edgars fetish for sheep against him, which ultimately costs him and his house the tournament. The BETAS win and Mr. Levinstein, as the officiate, hands over the golden hammer to Dwight, who, as he accepts it, says, "Betas for life!"

Afterward, the BETAS having moved into their new mansion, courtesy of the GEEKs hold a massive toga party, where Cooze, much to his relief, finally sleeps with Denise and all suspicions of her being a man are gone. As the morning comes, BETA president Wesley wakes up finally believing that his curse as the blackout menace is over, only to hear the toilet flush and is confronted with the female bodybuilder formerly of the GEEK house.

I watched this in cinema, and this round was DVD at home. The DVD really can't compete with cinema at all, especially the scream~ AHHHH~ hahaha :P i love it.

The story is very touching and lovely on the early part telling about Carl and Ellie. How they fall in love, have their dream and how they get old and finally Ellie passed away. To achieve this, Carl think of an idea of using balloons to fly their house to the Paradise Falls.. this which i think is funny and not make any sense especially when the old man carry a house around... but hey this is animation, so it make sense :)

Overall this is a good animation, love it :)
