Chiu kap hok hau ba wong

A great outing from Hong Kong's crazy director, Wong Jing. A roman-a-clef version of Street Fighter II, this film features some of Hong Kong's biggest stars (Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau, Simon Lam). Upon first viewing you may find that your brain is short circuiting due to the bizarreness, but once you finish, you have to go back for more. Every turn in this film leads to another sight gag, from Broom Man's hair, big lips, edible furniture, age reducing syringes, live action Super Mario Brothers, and Dragonball's Son Goku. Not really close to the story of Street Fighter II, most of the characters are here (all except Balrog and Zangief, and the 4 characters added later, although there are 2 Chun Lis in the end). All and all, a classic Hong Kong comedy, others may not think the same, but I can't imagine watching it without laughing insanely.

This Hong Kong version of the game "Street Fighter II" was way better than the Van Damme film of 1994. The characters actually emulate their signature moves in this action-comedy. I couldn't help but root for the heroes while laughing my head off. The only actor to look exactly like his character was Aaron Kwok as Ryu. The little music video with Jacky Cheung (Guile) is hysterical. If you see this film, get ready for a cameo from Dragon Ball Z's Goku!!!! It is awesome and if you're an anime fan, you gotta see it!!!!

Future Cops (1994) was one of the last films that Wong Jing made using the STREET FIGHTER video game characters. This bizarre film that was written and directed by Wong Jing (fight direction by Ching Siu-Tung) is not only a violent affair but it's a hilarious end up of video games and teen comedies.

The movie begins sometime in the 25th century. A descendant of a great and powerful judge is in danger of flunking out of school. In order for the future to remain on it's current course, word has been received that the nation's enemies have built a time machine. They'll stop at nothing to make sure the 20th century descendant flunks out of school for good. To present this from happening, four of the best cops are sent back in time to watch over this kid. When they arrive in the 20th century, they see that the future's savior is a 28 year old high school student who's a total ween. His sister keeps him in check and he's oblivious from the affections of his hot girlfriend.

I don't know how to explain the rest of the movie. What occurs during the next ninety minutes goes beyond explanation. I don't even know where to start. But if you love slapstick comedy with heaping servings of low brown humor then you'll love this movie. If you have watched Wong Jing movies in the past and haven't already seen this film, what are you waiting for? Grab a copy of this movie today!! Stars Simon Yam, Andy Lau, Aaron Kwok Jacky Cheung, Chingmy Yau, Yuen King Tan, Ken Lo, Richard Ng, Charlie Yeung ,Dennis Chan and Dicky Cheung

Highly recommended.

This movie wasn't as bad as people say it was. I've never heard of "Street Fighters" so I didn't really care that it was parodying it. I guess it's the sort of movie you wouldn't pay more than $5.00 for, but it would make the perfect party movie. The humour isn't smart, but it isn't so stupid that you cringe. It's actually pretty funny. Andy Lau was adorable, Jacky Cheung was cute, and just the whole atmosphere of the film let you relieve yourself of any seriousness. I mean, you could just see that those in the movie were acting with such an inane silliness, and so you can't help losing yourself in the zaniness of the film. Totally not Oscar-worthy in any sense, but nice fluff to get your mind off work and just have fun! Andy and Jacky are great and the cast has a floating charm, so go watch it with friends.

When I sat down to watch "Chiu kap hok hau ba wong" (aka "Future Cops") here in 2021, for the very first time, I must admit that I wasn't really expecting the movie to be as enjoyable and funny as it turned out to be. I had read the synopsis, but hadn't paid attention to whom was on the cast list.

And I must admit that writer and director Jing Wong definitely did a marvelous job with "Future Cops", because this movie was every bit as unique as it was enjoyable. In fact, I think that "Future Cops" is so over the top goofy and silly that some viewers might actually dislike the movie. I, however, enjoyed this particular style of silly movie.

The storyline is pretty straight forward and simplistic. A group of law enforcers and criminals travel back in time and cause havoc at a high school.

Aside from having an enjoyable storyline that was made all the more entertaining by the sheer amount of funny situations, character and dialogue, then "Future Cops" had an amazing ensemble of casted actors and actresses. If you are familiar with the Hong Kong cinema, then you will find yourself in for quite a treat.

"Future Cops" has the likes of Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Aaron Kwok, Chingmy Yau, Ekin Cheng, Simon Yam. Richard Ng and Ken Lo on the cast list. So yeah, this is definitely an all-star ensemble.

I particularly enjoyed how "Future Cops" was a parody on things like "Street Fighter", "Tekken", "Dragonball Z" and "Doreamon". It was just all together a silly mixture that made for hilarious entertainment.

This was definitely a blast to sit down and watch, and I was more than genuinely entertained by Jing Wong's 1993 action comedy. My rating of "Future Cops" lands on a six out of ten stars.
