Funny with a capital F

I am so disappointed that I can't buy a copy of this film. SBS Australia did an excellent sub-titled version which has made for the local popularity of this film. Only in a HK comedy would a cockroach pass for a Chinese date greedily munched under the health inspector's nose or caged rats get surreptitiously sneaked into a rival's restaurant. Gross-out is the order of the day. And this is all in good fun. The traditional Chinese-style promotional duck suit is really subtle comedy and a total delight to watch in all-out bad Kung Fu war with the chicken-suited rival tout. Is a shining clean Western fast-food joint the ant's pants and bee's knees? Not if you're after the true Cantonese dining experience, it's not. Love it! Please find a way to bring this one to DVD.
