Skinny Tiger and Fatty Dragon

This is an OK action comedy starring Sammo Hung as Fatty Dragon and Karl Maka as Baldy Tiger, two undercover cops assigned to infiltrate a cocaine ring run by Gang Boss Wing (Lau Kar-Wing).

Sammo's fabulous martial arts fighting styles and Karl's fast-talking deadpan deliveries in his Taishanese accent make this film a pretty funny and entertaining for starters. I remembered that my parents and I laughed hard at Karl's dialog.

But, the plot does tend to drag on toward the middle of the movie. I didn't like the subplot involving Carrie Ng's informant character, as she became a victim with both the police and the villains, which made her appear she couldn't get any slack. Felt sorry for her.

It's a hit and miss action comedy, but there are better ones with Sammo Hung out there.

Grade C
