    Crime - what is it good for?

    Especially when "nicer" criminals are being treated the same way, than mean criminals are being treated? Then again, even the nice ones can be quite ... mean. It's quite complex at places, though the story overall is quite simple. There's violence though, disturbing at that. Not always because it is explicit (that is also the case), but because it is just unnerving.

    The actors are good, especially because of how the roles are written. A really thin red line ... to walk on. Not without flaws, but thrilling enough and decent enough filmed.

    Quintessentially Hong Kong in both humour and character, this non-conformist take on the typical 'cops-versus-robbers' genre is amusingly and exuberantly offbeat

    Hong Kong cinema is known for its 'cops-versus-robbers' thrillers, but Lau Ho-leung's directorial debut wisely skewers genre expectations for a darkly funny comic romp. Taking the point of view of the 'robbers' rather than the men-in-uniform, Lau tracks the misadventures of a bunch of low-rent ex-cons who reunite for that one final heist, which is to rob a delivery van transporting corpses from across the border that are stuffed with cash. Their grand plan? By disguising a public 16- seater red minibus as a police Emergency Unit vehicle and dressing up as police officers.

    However, as Francis Ng's Big F will tell you right at the start, they are not the only ones who have the same design. A rival gang of criminals (led by Philip Keung) also plan to rob the same van, though with an actual de-commisioned EU vehicle and much bigger firepower. Over the course of one fateful Halloween night, our four anti-heroes will become heroes in their own right, discovering their sense of justice as they not only rescue a young girl from their fellow outlaws but literally live up to their uniforms by taking the law into their own hands. Like we said, this isn't your straight- forward 'cops-versus-robbers' shoot-em-up, but hey that is precisely its gonzo charm.

    Like Johnnie To's 'The Mission', the camaraderie between the bunch of lovable oddballs gives the film its own character. Big F has just returned from a sixteen year stint in a Malaysian prison, his mullet quite a spectacular sight to behold. Crazy B (Simon Yam) complements him with a demi-afro, his latest employment as a lowly paid attendant at a bowling alley. Johnnie T is a hair stylist at a back alley, his regular clientele mostly hostesses and prostitutes. And last but not least is East L (Mark Cheng), the most respectably employed of the lot who drives his own minibus – it is riding on East L's public transport vehicle that Big F gets the idea of playing dress-up after a real EU van pulls up alongside theirs at a traffic junction.

    Afraid that his audience may miss the character nuances, Lau gets an eagle-eyed junior officer Tsui (Leo Ku) to describe each one of their distinct personality quirks as he picks up the pieces of their criminal preparations. Big F is brash and a penny-pincher. Crazy B is shrewd and methodical. Johnnie T is slightly OCD. East L is the most loyal of them all. Frankly, Tsui's voiceovers aren't necessary, and betray the insecurities of a first-time director. Indeed, he need not have worried - in no small measure due to the effortless chemistry between the veteran male actors, there is much vim and vigour in the character interplay to convey the same.

    The first act not only sets up the crime but also the dynamic between the four partners-in-crime, and it is clear from these scenes that despite their petty squabbles, there is a fundamental bond of brotherhood that binds them together. Because they are such great fun to be with, Ku's sharp-nosed officer almost comes across as an unnecessary distraction – though, to Lau's credit, he does give the character some shading as a strait-laced man of the law who can't quite grasp the ambiguities in his profession. Lau also gives Tsui greater purpose in the narrative in the second and third acts, as the latter's fate becomes intertwined with that of Big F's crew and the hard- nosed baddies on and around the deserted mountainous terrain of the New Territories.

    What ensues pretty much plays out like a cat-and-mouse-game, as Big F and his rival in crime trade barbs, threats and insults while each holding on to something and someone that the other wants. Their battle of dimmed wits is told with an offbeat exuberance, with some generous – but still judicious – use of comic- book like split screens, superimposed animation and a jaunty soundtrack to add to its irreverent tone plainly clear from its plentiful use of profane humour (some of which is lost in the Mandarin dubbing, but is still discernible from the subtitles) – and it is just as well then that the CGI, especially in the last standoff, looks just as grungy.

    It is perhaps understandable that Lau is a better writer than a director. Unlike Fruit Chan's equally eccentric 'The Midnight After', Lau can't quite keep the crazy vibe from slacking in the second act. His framing of the mise-en-scene is also at times awkward, especially his occasional reminders of the citywide cockroach infestation which the movie opened with and which remains only tangentially relevant to the main story. From a scripting perspective however, the subtext is somewhat inspired, and one need not read too hard between the lines to see what Lau is trying to say about the local police force or about 'Mainland corpses bloated with money'. The way the main narrative intersects with the subplots, most notably an ice-cream seller who Big F's crew rescues from two rapists, could also do with some finesse; as it is, these melodramatic moments are tonally incongruous with the rest of the outlandish plotting.

    Indeed, 'Two Thumbs Up' has its flaws, but there is something inherently delightful and admirable in Lau's directorial debut in its refusal to succumb to genre stereotypes as well as its amusingly anarchic attitude. It is one of the most original ensemble pieces to come out of Hong Kong cinema in recent years, anchored of course by superb performances from Ng, Yam, Tam and Cheng. At a time when so many Hong Kong films are accused of diluting their identity in order to break into the Mainland market, this comes as a refreshing breath of fresh air, and accordingly deserves a reception worthy of its title.

    Also two thumbs up from me...

    For me it was quite a thrill to find the 2015 movie "Two Thumbs Up" (aka "Chung fung che"), especially since I wasn't even familiar of its existence. But more so, it was quite a thrill to return to the Hong Kong cinema with a movie such as this and with both Francis Ng and Simon Yam at the helm.

    Director and writer Ho Leung Lau managed to create something quite entertaining here with "Two Thumbs Up". And while it perhaps wasn't the most original of scripts, it sure was an entertaining one.

    The story is about a criminal fresh out of prison who seeks out his former partners in crime for another heist. And they make a very elaborate plan to carry out the criminal intent, but things turn awry when another gang of criminals hit the same target.

    There is a good amount of action, storytelling and actually also some comedy in this movie. Luckily the comedy is subtle and kept to a minimum, otherwise this would have been a whole different movie entirely. It is this good combination of elements that make the story interesting and fast paced.

    But a lot of credit should also go to the cast of the movie. The people hired to portray the various roles and characters were doing great jobs with their given roles. I was especially impressed with Hong Kong heavy weighters Franic Ng and Simon Yam, and you know that they will give you your money's worth of entertainment, and they didn't fail to deliver in "Two Thumbs Up".

    If you enjoy the Hong Kong cinema, then you should really take the time to sit down and watch "Two Thumbs Up", because it feels like a grand return to the golden age of Hong Kong action movies, when John Woo was the pinnacle of Hong Kong action cinema.
