Viewing Notes

Pretty fun sequel to COME DRINK WITH ME. Though it pales in comparison to King Hu’s COME DRINK WITH ME, it’s still a lot of fun in its own right. Pretty complicated love foursome drives the main part of the story. Jimmy Wang Yu’s character is a pretty arrogant prick in this. You really cheer more for Lo Lieh throughout, though I’m not sure you’re supposed to.
