I've seen a trailer and it looks shit.

If I can get over my disappointment of it not being a Three Brothers reunion film, and just approach it as a goofy JC comedy, I think I might be able to enjoy it. I'll give it a chance, at least.

I think the trailer looked rather cool.

Not the best shot of Biao, but at least he's in the film:

Hey SHOULD have been one of the main stars, though, along with Jackie and Sammo! :crybaby:

You get what you can of him, I suppose...

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 17 Jun 2006, 16:51

Why would you want Biao and Sammo when you can have, er, Louis Koo?

the68monkey · Post by **the68monkey** » 17 Jun 2006, 20:52

Koo is so orange that he looks like he has a liver disease.

He's the love child of David Dickinson.

There are two new trailers on the official site:

I recommend you not to watch the Cannes trailer, because it seems to spoil about 99% of the action. :shock:

If you select the Chinese version of the Original homepage, you'll be able to see another new trailer, as well as a making of...

Seems like I'm the only one still posting on this topic.

Well, Rob-B-Hood is quite a decent hit at the Hong Kong boxoffice (as it earned about 17 million HK$ in the first 10 days of screening - this makes it more successfull than NPS or The Myth).

And here's the review from LoveHkFilm:

Given Jackie's stance on piracy, I doubt we'll be able to find a screener anytime soon.

Gotta wait...

EDIT: Thread title has been updated.

Downloaded a shitty Mandarin dub. Was recorded with a camera in the cinema.

Must see that film ASAP.

Hey, this actually sounds watchable, in a Chinese Two Men and A Baby kind of way.

Its a very enjoyable film, I saw it a couple of days ago at the pictures in Beijing with a friend. I had to keep asking her what certain parts of the dialogue meant as it was in Mandarin with no subtitles but it was still very entertaining. Yuen Biao is brilliant in it. Some of the scenes/stunts with the baby you would have thought that a baby would not have survived even though he comes out all hunky dory. I think its one of Jackie's better recent films. Its just fun to watch. I missed the first 5 mins of it though, so can' t comment on that part. Definetely worth watching.

This looks awful. Can JC go any lower. At least it's a HK film which is worth something.

The print has been destroyed, though.

As an extra or well you know?

As far as I know, he was a "well you know".
But it was just a softcore movie.
