Fight Back to School 2

In this action comedy sequel, Stephen Chow stars again as SWAT team leader Detective Sing Chow, he goes undercover at a high school after being demoted to traffic duty. This time he takes on a terrorism case to show his superiors that he can still be a cop to be reckoned with.

As with many of Stephen Chow's films, this one has no shortage of slapstick humor and ridiculous action-comedy. Chow proves again that he could do action as well when he tries to deal with the band of terrorists, and also do some romance scenes, courtesy with school official Miss Ho (Sharla Cheung).

This sequel has much goofy scenes here and there, and sometimes you wonder if you could take the plot seriously, but this was still a pretty good film and was rather entertaining.

Grade B-

The 1991 movie "Fight Back to School" was pretty enjoyable and funny, so of course I needed no persuasion to sit down to watch the 1992 sequel "Fight Back to School 2" (aka "To hok wai lung 2").

And while "Fight Back to School 2" definitely was watchable, it just wasn't fully up to par with the previous movie. It just lacked the comedy elements that were abundant in the first movie. Now, I am not saying that "Fight Back to School 2" wasn't funny, because it was, but it just didn't have nearly enough funny contents to match the predecessor.

The storyline in "Fight Back to School 2" was a bit too tame as well, especially since it was so similar to the first movie. So there wasn't really much of anything new to be seen in this 1992 sequel.

But for fans of Stephen Chow, "Fight Back to School 2" is definitely an adequate movie, of that I am quite sure.

For me, this was a mediocre movie, and as such, I am rating "Fight Back to School 2" a five out of ten stars.

This movie is a brilliant mixture of action and slapstick comedy. Only the comedic talent of Stephen Chow and Man Tat Ng could make a film this funny and hilarious. The scene where Man Tat Ng dressed as the Terminator, made me laugh my head off when I first saw it. If you need a laugh, this is the movie to watch.

Filled with hilarious scenes , this wonderful cop comedy features the lovely chemistry between Chow and Ng Man Tat, and the great Cheung Man returns as Chow's girlfriend. This is one of the rare instances of a sequel being better than the original IMHO as this one is filled with funny gags, lines of dialogue and has solid action sequences to boot. Very highly recommended.

10 out of 10!

Personally I felt this one was worse than the original, which at least had, well, originality going for it. Here we get the lamebrained Chow finding himself bored and out of a job, to which end he goes undercover at a school once more. An interesting beginning with the new characters and scenario, and a funny DIE HARD situation making up the climax, but the mid section is long and aimless, made up of a tired romance scenario. Never has a Chow film felt more plotless...
