Money Crazy (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)

YesAsia Editorial Description

Before his heroic bloodshed days, director John Woo was responsible for a number of comedies, including the hilarious caper comedy Money Crazy! Ricky Hui stars as Ducky, a gold-digging shyster who's looking for a quick buck. Ducky gets close to tycoon Rich Chen in hopes of scoring, but things go awry when he fumbles the delivery of some precious gems. Enter Mary (Angie Chiu) and Tough Guy (Richard Ng), who are actually after the jewels because they belong to Mary's elderly father! Putting aside their greedy, money-grubbing ways, Ducky and Tough Guy make a pact to help Mary in her quest...and hopefully snatch some riches along the way! But that's just a plan. Actually getting into Rich Chen's mansion and getting the jewels is another story! John Woo brings a slapstick comic touch to Money Crazy, a zany farce reminiscent of the best Hong Kong comedies of the seventies. Ricky Hui and Richard Ng make a delightful comic duo, showing the talent and self-effacing sense of humor that made them two of Hong Kong's top comedy actors!

Decent early Woo comedy Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
This early film from John Woo is one of his many comedies. It works somewhat mainly because of the 2 leads. Some funny moments and some weird ones. I liked Laughing Times a little better, but I like it better than From Riches to Rags. English Subtitles have errors and some timing problems, but this will probably the best way to see it--on DVD. If you like to collect early John Woo films or you like Ricky Hui or Richard Ng, you may enjoy it.
