One of Wong Jing's lesser - read sillier - comedies. Andy Lau is the nominal star and plays it straight for the most part, but the majority of the screen time seems to be given over to Tony Leung goofing off and giving a way OTT performance that quickly outstays its welcome. It's part gambling movie, part prison drama, but mostly just a series of random vignettes with the usual off-colour lowbrow humour and inevitable rape jokes. Some good cast members show up here (particularly Johnny Wang Lung Wei), but overall I found it more than a little tiresome.
