    very good, very funny
    If you are a Chinese, I am sure you have seen the film, and enjoy it a lot.

    If you are not, maybe you have seen one or two Zhou Xingchi(Stephen Chow)'s film such as: Shaolin Soccer, if you like that kind of humor, I am sure that you will like this film much more. Please remember Singsing's films is always the most funny movies in China.
