宝贝计划

Always a fan of Jackie Chan's brand of action comedy in a HK production, though it has not been producing at a more frequent rate as before. Everything was well within expectation, though action was subdued with the element of comedy increased. The storyline was predictable with Jackie as 人字拖 and Louis as 百达通 are modern day thieves who steal stuff to earn a living. And with their friend, Michael Hui as 包租公 who taught them how to pick locks and open safe.

Though thieves, they don't do 奸淫掳掠 and 伤天害理的事. But when 包租公's house got robbed and his 3 million cash was gone, he got another deal this time round but going against their motto. Because of the intially agreed money of 7 million they would get out of this deal, 人字拖 and 百达通 agreed without knowing what they are stealing, also because 人字拖 and 百达通 are under debts from 烂赌 and lavishingly 泡妞 respectively.


Much of the movie was trying to take care of the baby while 包租公 was in jail. Hilarous moments here and there when 人字拖 and 百达通 tried their hands to take care of the BB. And became their Daddy and Mummy in the event. After days with the BB, both of them became attached to him and was very unwilling to hand him over. Thus, action came in when the bad guys are after the baby and 元彪 as 莫史迪 police inspector starts to investigate the kidnapped BB.


The best action comedy sequence was in the house of 高圆圆 as Melody, she was the nurse who was teaching them how to take care of the BB. When all parties just came in comical timing to the house and finally action broke out when they found out the BB was taken away by the bad guys. Fighting in confined area, fighting using objects, car chase, comical action all came along.

A happy ending needed for such movies to appeal to the public. The moment of the movie is when 人字拖 uses himself as a human defibrillator trying to revive the BB who was locked in the room under freezing temperatures.

Forget to mention about the cameo appearances by Nicholas Tse and Daniel Wu as a pair of "brokeback mountain" security truck drivers !!!!! Hahahahaha !!!!

A entertaining movie. 8/10.
