Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Stars

Rating: 5/10

Sammo Hung directs and stars in this incoherent mess of a movie. You would never know he’s the star from the promotional images. They all prominently feature Jackie Chan instead of Sammo. Jackie does his stunt fight thing for a couple of scenes, but most of the story is about our heroes, The Lucky Stars: a group of pervy men trying to grope and peep women. The comedy is painfully unfunny and the premises always go on way too long. There are maybe three standard Hong Kong action sequences that seem like they were spliced in from another, better movie. After watching, I found out this is part three in a trilogy of films. This probably explains some lack of any development (or explanation) of the main characters. I guess now I will have to torture myself with the other two movies.
