Watched this on a plane. This movie was good enough to spark an interest in Deng Chao and Chinese comedies like this one.

Overall: funny movie with lots of slapstick humor (my kind of humor). Especially if you're trying to learn Chinese, this is an entertaining option.

Plot: kinda cohesive but not entirely. I can't stand movies that seem too outlandish, and this one didn't reach that mark. Of course it's a comedy so a lot of things suspend reality.

Full disclosure: I'm American-born Chinese; can understand some Chinese but definitely relied on subtitles.
