Stephen Chow was the closest Hong Kong Comedy ever had to an international star. Breaking out with “Shaolin Soccer” and “Kung Fu Hustle” he suddenly stepped back to focus on direction. Prior to this was a huge back catalogue of his work that apart from sporadic releases was hardly seen in the west. Eureka Entertainment start to rectify that with the upcoming release of “From Beijing with Love” his Bond Spoof from 1994. Comedy however can be a very acquired taste and what makes them roar in Kowloon may not necessarily do so in Kansas. So time to take a trip back to the nineties and experience Stephen Chow in his prime.

For the uninitiated, Stephen Chow comedies on the surface can be a tad confusing with a constant stream of cultural references and wordplay that is lost on non Cantonese speakers. His style of “make no sense” (mo lei tau) comedy does require an understanding of some of what he parodies. With “Shaolin Soccer” and “Kung Fu Hustle” aiming more at the international market, “Forbidden City Cop” is a great entry point to his more locally aimed work.
Ling Ling Fat (Stephen Chow) is an imperial guard with no actual fighting skill. Instead, he invents gadgets for himself and his wife Kar-ling (Carina Lau). After getting ostracized by the emperor, he tries to protect him from being assassinated by No Face (Yuen Shun-yi). After redeeming himsel,f he must bring the beautiful Cho (Carmen Lee) back to the palace for the emperor’s attentions. But things, as always,...

Hong Kong has a rich and renowned cinematic history. From time to time, filmmakers pick up the precarious political relationship to mainland China. 1997, only a few months after the city returned to Chinese rule, Fruit Chan released “Made in Hong Kong”. The pessimistic indie flick marks the beginning of Fruit’s unofficial trilogy about Hong Kong in the late 90s, entering a new era. “The Longest Summer” (1998) is seen as the second contribution to the series and finally, in 2001, “Little Cheung” concludes the trilogy.
“Little Cheung” looks back at the time shortly before the reunification with China. A nine-year-old boy lives in a poor neighboorhood of Hong Kong and delivers food of his father’s restaurant to an often shady triad clientele. He encounters a little immigrant girl named Fan and they start spending time together and begin a quest for Little Cheung’s lost brother.
