To hok wai lung 2

I love Stephen Chow. I enjoyed the first Fight Back to School film.

This was just PAINFUL. I might have chuckled once or twice(instead of the usual roaring with laughter).

The action scenes were not interesting. The plot (bad subtitling didn't help) was pointless.

Overall a huge disappointment!

I'm not sure I can even bring myself to watch #3 now.

Why must I have 10 lines? I've said all I need to say succinctly. The minimum should just be more than 1 sentence that says "this rox" or something equally pointless.

In this action comedy sequel, Stephen Chow stars again as SWAT team leader Detective Sing Chow, he goes undercover at a high school after being demoted to traffic duty. This time he takes on a terrorism case to show his superiors that he can still be a cop to be reckoned with.

As with many of Stephen Chow's films, this one has no shortage of slapstick humor and ridiculous action-comedy. Chow proves again that he could do action as well when he tries to deal with the band of terrorists, and also do some romance scenes, courtesy with school official Miss Ho (Sharla Cheung).

This sequel has much goofy scenes here and there, and sometimes you wonder if you could take the plot seriously, but this was still a pretty good film and was rather entertaining.

Grade B-

Stephen Chow has to go back to school undercover and brings along his friends he met in the last movie. Funny how part 2 lives up to the title and he really has to fight back to school this time. Him and his girlfriend are going to get married, but he ends up spending all of their wedding money on his undercover job. Deannie Yip has a small role as the Chief Inspector and she is brilliant just like always. And nice to see cameos from Blacky Ko, James Wong, and Mark Houghton.

Fight Back to School part 1 is a great comedy, yet still managed to stay serious for a large portion of the film. Part 2 is a masterpiece in every way. The comedy comes in huge doses and I won't even try elaborate on how funny it is. Only Stephen Chow can pull off not wanting to kiss an 18 year old girl this well. It's a dream sequel for fans of the first movie.

Sadly, the fights are even more sparse than Part 1. That is because there are no real fights. Everything is played for laughs and it works very well. There is a great shootout at the end and it tops the movie off nicely.

In this imaginatively named sequel to the previous year's TO HOK WAI LUNG, Man-Tat Ng has been rewarded with a promotion to special operatives and Inspector Deannie Ip as his girl friend, Stephen Chow with traffic duty. When Ng tells him that his current assignment is undercover at a school where terrorists are threatening the student body, Chow quits and using fiancee Sharla Cheung's bridal money, hires his cohort from the last movie to likewise go undercover.

There are a lot of moving parts in this movie, but they all give way to various high-school antics, with Chow courting schoolmate Athena Chu, and occasionally pausing to beat up Ng under the guise of being beaten up by him. In fact, it's all grand fun and games, until the last twenty minutes, when the terrorists invade the school, and there's only Ng to fight them, which he does effectively.... for a while. How Chow mobilizes a tactical squad and performs general heroics I'll leave to the interested viewer to find out himself.

Filled with hilarious scenes , this wonderful cop comedy features the lovely chemistry between Chow and Ng Man Tat, and the great Cheung Man returns as Chow's girlfriend. This is one of the rare instances of a sequel being better than the original IMHO as this one is filled with funny gags, lines of dialogue and has solid action sequences to boot. Very highly recommended.

10 out of 10!
