I can't say this was a GREAT film, but I have a lot of affection for this buddy picture. The two leads are charming. They play small-time bumbling con-artists who are trying to make it big in the world of the Triads. Its funny and even...(I cant believe I'm saying this) heart-warming. And there is a big action packed gun-fu finale. What's not to like?

Keith (Cheung, Hok Yau) & Fred Tung (Leung, Chiu Wai) grew up in complicted families and became street thugs. Keith & Fred wanted to set up a brothel house & found out it's a big mistaken from their first "employee" Jane (Yuen, Kit Yee) - that she's a lesbian & thought she works in a "model center".

After their failed business attempt, they got hunted down by the biggest triad boss in town - Kwan Gong.

Kwan Gong is having trouble with the police and need people like Keith & Fred's bad luck charm to turn his bad luck around. Being promoted to be Kwan's second men in the triad, Keith & Kwan enjoyed lavish lifestyles and praises from their childhood primary school & inspired other youngsters to be a gangster! Other than being a good luck charm to Kwan Gong, Keith & Fred helped out in a mission to get rid of a dead body. They failed miserably and was mistaken to be a cop's informers. In a final battle between the Bad & the wanna-be bads, a gangster wuss showed up to their rescue.

At the end, Keith & Fred spent years in jail for being a triad senior members.

The morale of the movie is that being a triad member brings you no good future.

Days of Being Dumb (1992) is a hilarious parody of the film Days of Being Wild and others of the same ilk. It stars Jacky Cheung and Leung Chi Wai as two losers who'll do anything to try and be successful in the Triad world. But all they've accomplished is having a bad luck reputation in the crime world. They're labeled jinxes and nobody would go near them. The movie is told in flashback from the two main characters point of view.

For Hong Kong Cinema fans only. Highly recommended

One of my favorite scenes in this film revolves around Tony Leung Chui Wai and Jacky Cheung making their own tattoos. It has to be seen to be believed!
