Curiosity sake but the worst one out of the four gambler movies
(1994) God of Gamblers' Return
(In Chinese with English subtitles)
ACTION/ COMEDY
Written and directed by Wong Jing wanted to make some money and he knows how to do it, by making this nonsensical 2nd or 4th whatever you call it! Whatever what was shown on this film had already been shown before on other films whether it's action or comedy and was better! This was a total waste of time that despite doing really well at the box office making it the highest grossing movie of that year in Hong Kong, star Chow Yun Fat disapproved of Wong Jing's direction this time one reason that is apparent was that in the first film suave Chow Yun Fat always wore a suit and tie and in this one I don't remember him wearing one at all! The gags are not funny because of a lack of credibility where the jokes are forced as well as the action sequences meaning that director Wong Jing didn't put too much thought into this film and just wanted to make a fast buck! You can watch this for curiosity sake, if you like what you saw from the first three movies.
