Movie Reviews of Winners and Sinners
Movie Review: Pure comedy!
Summary: 4 Stars
Though I purchased this assuming it was going to be a martial arts film, or at least be mostly fighting, it turned out to be a refreshingly funny comedy about 5 ex-cons who try to go legit but get pulled back into crime unbeknownst to them. Jackie Chan isnt even the main character, but his screen time is well spent and the movie overall has opened my eyes to a genre in Chinese comedy.
Summary of Winners and Sinners
This hilarious farce follows a pack of small-time crooks. Studio: Tcfhe Release Date: 04/05/2005 Starring: Jackie Chan Run time: 107 minutes Rating: R Director: Sammo Hung"It's an epic!" howls one of the fighters in the free-for-all finale, overwhelmed by the sheer number of characters that get crowded into a single room, all pounding away at each other. Indeed, every comic actor and most of the leading action stars in Hong Kong in 1983 seem to have been squeezed into this amiable kung fu comedy--there are even tiny cameo appearances by several famous movie directors (Ann Hui, Tsui Hark, Wu Ma). This picture marks the debut of a loose-knit group of farce-action stalwarts, the Five Lucky Stars, stumble-bum reformed crooks who attempt to go straight by setting up a cleaning service, but can't seem to help getting into tons of trouble. The Stars went on to appear in several sequels, including My Lucky Stars. Jackie Chan, as a cop pursuing the hapless crooks, is essentially the straight man here, and he seems to be using a stunt double in some of his big scenes. This is a close as Chan ever got to phoning in a performance. --David Chute
