To hok wai lung 2

In this imaginatively named sequel to the previous year's TO HOK WAI LUNG, Man-Tat Ng has been rewarded with a promotion to special operatives and Inspector Deannie Ip as his girl friend, Stephen Chow with traffic duty. When Ng tells him that his current assignment is undercover at a school where terrorists are threatening the student body, Chow quits and using fiancee Sharla Cheung's bridal money, hires his cohort from the last movie to likewise go undercover.

There are a lot of moving parts in this movie, but they all give way to various high-school antics, with Chow courting schoolmate Athena Chu, and occasionally pausing to beat up Ng under the guise of being beaten up by him. In fact, it's all grand fun and games, until the last twenty minutes, when the terrorists invade the school, and there's only Ng to fight them, which he does effectively.... for a while. How Chow mobilizes a tactical squad and performs general heroics I'll leave to the interested viewer to find out himself.

Fight Back to School 2 (1992) deals with Stephen Chow's undercover cop role of Star Chow. Whenever he's incurs the wraith of his superiors, he's given a lousy under cover assignment. A gang of Anglo-centric gangsters are threatening several schools in the Hong Kong area. Star Chow has to go back to the school he attended in the first film and snoop around looking for clues about the bomb. Time is running out because the terrorists bombs could be any where. Can Star Chow once again save the day? Another funny film from Stephen Chow that defies explanation.

Cheung Man returns as Star Chow's love interest so does Ng Man Tat and Gabriel Wong (reprising his role from the first film). Deannie Yip co-stars as Star's superior officer along with Athena Chu, Blackie Ko, James Wong and Michael Chow.

Highly recommended.

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-

I love Stephen Chow. I enjoyed the first Fight Back to School film.

This was just PAINFUL. I might have chuckled once or twice(instead of the usual roaring with laughter).

The action scenes were not interesting. The plot (bad subtitling didn't help) was pointless.

Overall a huge disappointment!

I'm not sure I can even bring myself to watch #3 now.

Why must I have 10 lines? I've said all I need to say succinctly. The minimum should just be more than 1 sentence that says "this rox" or something equally pointless.

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...
