The Sugar-Bowl-Haircut Man saves the day, 30 July 2002

Sugar-bowl-haircutted, possessed of a moon-pie face that suggests Buddy Hackett's Asian cousin, Sammo Hung is the workin' man's Hong Kong action hero--a fat, squat lump who in a lightning flash can bust Jackie Chan moves. As a director he doesn't have the (relatively) gentle touch of some of his more famous contemporaries, but this 1989 picture, which seems to start out as a Chan-style rambunctious action comedy, blends melodramatic pathos and super-stylized mayhem into a tasty and in all ways effect combo. The best scene, involving a love suicide, ratchets from broad comedy to sentimental tears and back again maybe five times within a three-minute sequence. The golden-age Hong Kong filmmakers understood the value of Just Going For It. Hung ain't likely to be flattered by any comparisons to Lubitsch, but he sure does put Brett Ratner to shame, doesn't he?
