The third in the 'Tricky' series of films, Tricky King is another bonkers mix of bizarre slapstick comedy, speeded up chases, silly sound effects and practical-jokery from producer Wong Jing. Eric Kot stars as Ohmygod, a bumbling nice-guy who joins a gang of professional 'tricksters' who are employed by the son of a rich businessman to trick his half-sister.
The film is basically a series of wacky comedy scenes which run the gamut from slightly amusing to downright awful and, once again, I found myself struggling desperately to understand the Chinese sense of humour. Only the fact that the film featured a trio of very attractive ladies (Athena Chu, Lee Ann, and the buxom Sherming Yiu) stopped it from being a complete waste of celluloid; the three beauties parade about in skimpy outfits and do their best to detract the audience from the fact that the film is embarrassingly unfunny.
