Viewing Notes

Stephen Chow directs and stars in the comedy romp but the real star here is his wife played by Carina Lau. She’s really the glue that keeps this film together in all of its absurdity. Some fun sequences and Carman Lee is quite sweet in her role as well. Lots of gender bender transvestite humor mixed w/the fantasy elements. Entertaining for sure.
