La Comedie humaine (Blu-ray) (Hong Kong Version) Blu-ray Region All

Art and life thoroughly imitate each other in the hilarious Hong Kong comedy La Comedie Humaine. A fresh, conceptual take on the tired hitman genre, the Chan Hing-Ka/Janet Chun film is led by one of the least likely actors to play a professional killer on the big screen: Chapman To. The funnyman manages to give the comedic performance of his career as a Mainland Chinese assassin who also happens to love the movies. To is paired with the equally hilarious Wong Cho Lam, who puts his over-the-top mannerisms to good use as a scriptwriter that strikes up an unlikely friendship with his deadly visitor. The two are also joined by a game cast that includes longtime character actor Hui Siu Hung (also a Johnnie To regular), Fiona Sit (2 Young), and popular young model Kama Lo (Poker King). Praised by Hong Kong audiences, La Comedie Humaine became a true Hong Kong hit in the summer of 2010 thanks to its irreverent humor and the two lead actors' passionate efforts to support the film, which included cinema visits to thank audiences throughout Hong Kong.

Mainland Chinese hitman Spring (Chapman To) arrives in Hong Kong with his manager Setting Sun (Hui Siu Hung). However, when various complications separate them, Spring is taken in by nice-guy scriptwriter Soya (Wong Cho Lam), who tends to his new visitor perhaps a little too well. After several failed attempts to kill him, Spring slowly warms up to Soya, and the two become friends. Spring slowly adjusts to his new life in Hong Kong with his new friend, and even helps him fix his dysfunctional relationship with neurotic girlfriend Tin Oi (Fiona Sit). However, when Setting Sun finds his protégé, he forces Spring to abandon all personal attachments, including his friendship with troubled pregnant teenager Maggie (Kama Lo).

To know real friendship in life is truly good fortune. But it is by no means a given. Two weeks ago, an assassin for hire from the Mainland meets Soya, a frustrated screenwriter in Hong Kong. The former is an epitome of coolness and the latter is the personification of a chatterbox. When a Mainland assassin gets separated from his amesiac partner, he goes over to their pre-arranged rendezvons point on the rooftop. His partner never shows up. An unforeseen cold front causes the killer to lose consciousness and knock out Soya's TV antenna. Soya rescues the fainted hit man and takes him home. The fiend's killer instinct kicks into gear once he wakes but his weak physical state works against it. Soya has a psychotic girlfriend named Sky Love, the more Soya spoils her, the more deranged she gets. Just as the odd pair's unlikely friendship comes to fruition, the amnesiac assassin re-emerges and their unholy mission is suddenly back on track again. Law enforcement has been trailing this case and wants to set up a sting by engaging Soya as a mole. This forces Soya to do everything he can to aid in his friend's escape....
