Damned funny
12 February 2000 | by suavebloke – See all my reviews

Stephen Chiau Kit-sing stars in this hilarious Hong Kong comedy. He plays the 'Tricky Master', and is hired to pretend to be Andy Lau's brother. Dance sequences, toilet jokes, a naked suit, groin stabbings and losses of bodily functions abound. Superb.
