User Reviews

A good good movie

'Xia ri fu xing' is a very good ending to Lucky Stars trilogy (Winner & Sinners, My lucky stars, twinkle twinkle lucky stars). Jackie is not the main character. He only appears in fight scenes. But it doesnt matter. Samo and his friends are really entertaining if you like crazy hk humor. There are only three or four fight scenes in this movie but they are magnificent! It is a pleasure to watch Jackie and Yuen Biao beating up bad guy's. Young Andy Lau is Jackies assistant. Fight's are well cordinated and fast! Awesome!

Samo and his buddies are funny! Samo beats women assassins, Richard Ng tries voodoo on some girls and one of the female character's plays blind to not get shot as a murder witness! Really Funny! I recommend.
