Hong fu qi tian

This film essentially involves a young man named "Fatty" (Sammo Kam-Bo Hung) who works as a car attendant at a hotel and is bitter over the fact that his deceased grandfather "Hung Kau" (also played by Sammo Kam-Bo Hung) has left him and "Fatty's father" (also played by Sammo Kam-Bo Hung) destitute. Because of that he is constantly trying one get-rich-quick scheme after the other and uses his best friend "Hoi" (Hoi Mang) to help him out. The only problem is that the two of them are totally inept and fail each and every time they try. Then one day they observe a car thief named "Lily" (Nina Li Chi) and become determined to share in her success. Naturally, things don't quite work out at first but that all changes when Fatty's grandfather suddenly appears as a ghost and begins to help them out. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this is one of those comedies that seemed to be tailored for a specific audience because much of it didn't really appeal to me with the martial arts scenes being particularly uninteresting. It also has a number of jokes aimed at the Chinese government which was scheduled to take control over Hong Kong in 6 years from the date this film was produced which some viewers might not fully appreciate as well. In any case, this was one of those film that I simply couldn't quite get interested in and I have rated it accordingly. Below average.
