Yet another $2 bargain bin discovery, and another film not yet in the database (though it is listed at the HKFA in case any cross checking is required).

I moved this one up in my pile largely because of Bob's request here:

...and was rather surprised at how good this was. Well, at least well made, anyways, for a shot-on-video Wong Jing quickie circa the early 90's. The plot's right out of every comic book geek's wet dream, and not a little sexist, but Jacqueline Law's perkiness forgives a lot of sins. Anyone know if this is based on a comic book or perhaps a remake of something?

CLOSING CREDITS

Yeung Ka-Lok...but not 100% certain.

You might be right. There's a credit for "Ka Lok" in the film, on the sleeve, and at the HKFA. Perhaps he dropped his family name for awhile?

Added.

Although there are still more credits to be added yet.

Based on the credit, for now, I added a Jia Le (家樂) to the DB (which also happens to be pronounced "Ka-Lok").

Based on the credit, for now, I added a Jia Le (??) to the DB (which also happens to be pronounced "Ka-Lok").

I can see him on the Chinese side, but not on the English side. Could that just be my browser playing tricks? And since he speaks Cantonese in this Hong Kong movie, mightn't there be a chance that his name is actually pronounced along the lines of "Ka-Lok" or am I missing your point here about the mandarin pronunciation?

Nice to finally see Jacqueline Law's bio with some decent photos! I'm also curious to read the review when it's posted.

Yeah, I didn't assign him a romanized name as I didn't know what to call him...

I will set it to Ka-Lok for now...

Thanks for helping me out there, M.W..
