Hong Kong 1984, 100 minutes
Dir. Sammo Hung
In Cantonese with English subtitles
Rating: [M]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Comedy / Martial Arts

Feat. Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Biao Yuen

Aroview: The kung-fu trio of Chan, Hung and Biao travel, to Spain for this rambunctious minor classic, in a tale about food-vendors helping out a young pickpocket, who is in peril because she has inherited a massive family fortune. Effortless slapstick comedy, with some nicely fluid combat scenes.

Note: the film's unusual title is the result of the original 'Meals on Wheels' being reversed as the production company was superstitious about titles starting with the letter 'M'!
