The Case of the Cold Fish

7.9 94 mins Comedy   Action   1995
Director(s): Jamie Luk Kim-Ming

Release Date: 14 Fri, Jul 1995

Michael Chow is the chief cop of Tai O, a small rural town on Hong Kong's outlying Lantau Island. When a local man turns up dead, urban hero cop Michael Wong is sent in to help out the locals… and what follows is a cultural clash that's both humorous and utterly entertaining! Wong is an SDU cop and takes to bullying the locals with tough and hard-handed ways, but his efforts only result in resentment and anger. It's Chow who gets what the odd residents of Tai O are about, and his lackadaisical attitude is just what's needed to handle the prickly locals. But it may take the skills of both men to solve this murder case! Though nominally a cop film, this unique creation is as much a comedy of cultural errors as a murder mystery.
