Mo jong yuen So Hak Yee

Something of a departure for Stephen Chow, as he drops the zany over-the-top humour of his more well known comedies to play a real legendary figure, So-Hat-Yi a.k.a the "King of Beggars". Although you wouldn't notice its not supposed to be a typical Chow comedy until well into the second half, because the convoluted, meandering story allows Chow to do all his usual comedy gimmicks before turning into a more serious historical action adventure.

There is plenty to admire here: a fun cameo from directing legend Yuen Woo Ping, the "sleeping fist" kung-fu style, some well mounted large-scale battle scenes, and the usual fantastical action sequences typical to the fantasy/swordplay genre.

Unfortunately, its all a bit baffling, the plot is uninvolving, and its all rather inconsistent in tone (one minute Chow is a bumbling idiot, the next he's a stoic hero).

Worth a look, particularly if you prefer martial arts to comedy, but not Stephen Chow's best.

Could have been SO much fun if the translation was in English! Even pig latin would've been more comprehensible. But except for one or two lines ("Pee! Everybody pee!" when a fire breaks out) translations have the enigmatic quality of early Sony instruction manuals.

(Excerpt: "Watch out. He make to yesterday thing in something now.") It seems to be a fun film, but you'd have to learn Cantonese to fully appreciate it. After 4 days of language study, you could write better subtitles yourself.
