User Reviews

A funny comedy from the team of Eric Tsang and Dickie Cheung.

Chez n' Ham (1993) is a very strange but funny comedy from Eric Tsang and Dickie Cheung. The two play a pair of lovable rogues who are hired to become hit men. A very sick old man hires them to kill a rival's daughter (Joey Wong) for some unknown reasons. Since the two are down on their luck, they decide to do the job. The plan goes awry when two factors occur, one Joey Wong is very attractive and Dickie Cheung falls for her; two Joey Wong has a very protective guardian (Ng Man Tat) who has a strange desire for Dickie. Meanwhile a hardcore hit-man (Blackie Ko) is out to get all of them. Can the duo save the day and get paid at the same time?

The two make a great team. There are several comedic scenes that stand out. One of them is when the two confront an English speaking waitress inside a bar. The two drive her crazy with their broken English and wild hand gestures. Another highlight is the silly song they sing (which is also the theme song to the movie).

Highly recommended (if you can find a copy).
