Featured review
Ok, so there are loads of pretty boy-band type actors wandering around here - occasionally in various states of (pixellated) undress, but otherwise this is all a rather messy and unfunny crime caper that sees a group of private security lads and one of the would-be robbers head into the jungle to try to recover some missing jewels (pinched by one of their own number - "Jelly" (Kaho Hung) - who is making for the border). Along the way, they alight on some rather feisty commune-dwellers who can be quite efficient with a pitch fork whilst all the time being pursued by the folks who want the jewels and by a mysterious apparition, too. Can they catch up with and apprehend their erstwhile pal in time? At times the visual nature of their antics and the humour wouldn't look out of place in a bad Laurel and Hardy movie and though the eye candy carries it for the first half hour, the rest of it is all rather silly and forgettable. There is just too much random activity and too many off-the-wall characterisations to keep it watchable for any longer. If I'm being honest - the word puerile springs to mind.
