This is somewhat of a prelude to the lucky stars of the later hit 'My lucky stars'.Check it out as this is a funny film with a lot of laughs that you will enjoy in a typical Sammo, Jackie Chan film. And yes Jackie is not in the film for that long, as the main characters are the 5 gang of Sammo, Richard Ng and I can't remember the rest. Its about a gang who just got out of jail and somehow get themselves involved with some mafia and are being chased down by them. But thats towards the end as at the start they were only just getting to know each other and they start pulling practical jokes on each other. A good entertaining 80s film highly recommended. Get the DVD digitally remastered version as this contains interviews on the reflection of Sammo from many people and a face I haven't seen for a long time, Elaine Lui.
... View MoreI first saw this movie years ago on TV when I was pretty young and the entire family was in stitches from laughing so hard. It's full of pointless almost slapstick humour, but all done in such an entertaining way that it fits in beautifully with the plot. It has one of the best highway pile-up scenes I've ever seen in a movie, not completely overdone like most movies these days but done in a believable and funny way. Highly recommend this movie to just about anybody. I found the DVD at a rental store years later and took it to a friends's place for a party and everybody loved it. I'm watching it as I write this review, and my stomach is hurting from laughing so hard.
... View MoreWell, i bought Winners and Sinners, then i heard, Jackie has a pretty small role. It's true. Jackie appears only in couple fights. He doesnt take part to the final fight. But it doesnt matter. The film is great! I like Samo hung's films a lot. Especially i like the 'lucky stars' series, cos the humor is simple, funny and very unique. Humor is stupid and childish, but it fits in just right. I personally like Richard Ng. He is so funny! Of course there is good fight scenes and stunts. And the massive car crash is great in a low budget movie! Dont let Jackie's short appearance spoil the movie. Dont think this movie as a Jackie Chan movie. Think it as 'The lucky stars' movie!
... View MoreThis film is one of the best films from Jackie Chan. It's a good mixture, comedy and martial arts. The gang in the film is very silly and if you look Jackie Chan films you will see them again.It's a very good film, you have to see it.
