"Stephen Chow is Leo, a mental patient/ghostbuster who is a parody of the character Léon from the 1994 French film The Professional who talks to his plant for assistance, co-starring Karen Mok as Ah Kwan, a curious young girl who gets caught up with all the spooky situations. The pair are then joined by a brigade of quirky security guards in an attempt to get rid of the evil lurking in a supposedly haunted apartment building situated in Hong Kong."
Not the best Stephen Chow movie but it was still entertaining. I enjoyed the fact that his character and the heroine were parodies of two characters from one of my favorite films Leon: The Professional. There were a few nonsense laughing moments but besides that it wasn't as funny as his other works. I really love Hong Kong films, I fully would support their film industry if I could but for now I am just a fan. So as a fan I will say that anyone that likes Stephen Chows comedy style then this is the right film for you. Beware though, this is a darker role as it features blood, violence, and gore.
1.9/5
