Le Gagnant

Well, i bought Winners and Sinners, then i heard, Jackie has a pretty small role. It's true. Jackie appears only in couple fights. He doesnt take part to the final fight. But it doesnt matter. The film is great! I like Samo hung's films a lot. Especially i like the 'lucky stars' series, cos the humor is simple, funny and very unique. Humor is stupid and childish, but it fits in just right. I personally like Richard Ng. He is so funny! Of course there is good fight scenes and stunts. And the massive car crash is great in a low budget movie! Dont let Jackie's short appearance spoil the movie. Dont think this movie as a Jackie Chan movie. Think it as 'The lucky stars' movie!

A group of petty thieves who meet in prison decide to go straight and start a cleaning business when they get out. Meanwhile CID 07 (Jackie Chan) is on the trail of a counterfeiter whose printing plates get lost and wind up in the cleaning van owned by our five reformed heroes. Available in both dubbed full-screen and subtitled widescreen version

The first in the Lucky stars series is, as other entries, is daft, zany and fun. The best comic scene is the bit where one of the Lucky stars strips naked and walks around believing that he's invisible, while the others act like they don't see him. Of course, the usual lusting after the girl - in this case Cherie Chung - scene is here, but there's no pervy scenes. As for the action, Jackie, in a downsized appearance, gets in a full on high speed car chase on roller skates, and ducks underneath a lorry, plus there's a car chase ending in a 50-car pileup. There's some frenetically comic kungfu, but comedy takes precedence. Along with My Lucky Stars this is a strong entry.

I don't know why but I like that kind of movie.This movie haven't got a story but it's filled with great stunts and silly comedy.One of the great stunts is when Jackie drives under a truck with rollerskates and so makes a giant crash (up to 40 cars!).Who likes Hong Kong movies of that kind must see "Winners & Sinners!

'Winners and Sinners' is one of the funniest movies ever made. First disappointed by the fact, that Jackie Chan's part is pretty small, I started to love the other characters of the movie, especially Teapot (Samo Hung) and Exhaust Pipe (Richard Ng). It's very funny to see, how the members of the 'gang' get arrested (especially Exhaust Pipe trying to steal the wheels of a police officer's car while he is searching his keys).

The humor of the movie is mostly created by the funny dialogues and the stunning fight scenes, which also are, at times, very funny. But if you don't like this kind of 'silly' fun, you won't enjoy this movie. But I did. More than once ore twice (I saw this movie about 30 times). But I must admit, that my relationship to this movie is kind of special. It is one of the movies I have ever seen.

Nevertheless, I highly recommend this movie to everyone who likes silly fun and stunning fight sequences!

P.S.: If you like this movie, watch other 'five lucky stars' - movies like 'Fuk sing go jiu'!

This is probably Sammo Hung's best work before embarking on his venture to start D&B films. All star cast graces this movie including Jackie Chan, and Yuen Biao. Other stars reads like who's who of Hong Kong movie industry of the '80s.

Five ex cons and a girl starts a cleaning service. They just try to make their living, but soon they get involved with local gangsters, by taking their brief case filled with counterfeit money. What results is a mayhem of trouble and actions relating to the six of them. They find themselves in all sorts of strange situations, and compromising positions, but they use their ingenuity to get the best of the gangsters.

It's hard to tell if this is a comedy or an action movie. Most of the actors are not action stars, but regular movie actors, so it's not like endless action scenes in Jackie Chan's movies. It's more like old school Hong Kong comedy with some good actions inserted in between the story. Some action scenes involving Jackie Chan is a classic, like the one he hangs on to a car wearing his roller skates during a chase.

This is one of the classics from the '80s, and is recommended for viewing.
