The Owl VS Bumbo (Hong Kong Version) VCD

Classic eighties stars Sammo Hung and George Lam team-up in the delightful buddy comedy Owl vs. Bombo. Also known by the title Owl vs. Dumbo, the film finds the amiable actors as two ex-thieves (named Owl and Bombo, naturally) who team-up when cop Chung (Stanley Fung) blackmails them into acting on his behalf. Neither Owl nor Bombo has ever been fingered for their crimes, but Chung has the goods on both. However, instead of sending them to the big house, he enlists their aid in bringing down a big-time gangster (James Tien) involved in police corruption.

Owl vs. Bombo is typical of Hong Kong Cinema's eighties output, meaning it's a melting pot of various genres, including slapstick comedy, martial arts action, and even romance and drama. Director Sammo Hung gives both he and George Lam romantic interests, with Owl (Lam) becoming involved with social worker Miss Yeung, played by Hong Kong superstar Michelle Yeoh, in her very first screen appearance. Bombo (Hung) also romances a social worker, played by singer-actress Deannie Ip. The film also provides surprising drama, as two couples attempt to repair the lives of a group of juvenile delinquents. However, despite that detour into inspirational drama, the film regroups for a martial arts action finale, plus there's even an added treat for Sammo Hung fans: the famously large martial artist engages in a solo dance number! Funny, poignant, and quite surprising, Owl vs. Bombo is classic Hong Kong entertainment.

Both Firstday Chan, nicknamed Bombo and Yan Fuk Wong, the Owl, used to make a living by doing something illegal. After robbing a financial company, Chan decided not to do that again. Having swindled a huge amount of money from Au Gan, a big man in the real estate field, who dealt with illegal business in secret way and was under Superintendent Lui's protection, Wong also decided to return to good. Three years later, Chan ran a health club while Wong led an easeful life. But one day, both of them received an anonymous letter, saying that what they had done in the past was well known and they'd better finish two tasks. The first task was to work in a youth probation center, the second one was to bid for a piece of official land, which was under Au Gan's rule and quite important to him. Chan accidentally found out Uncle Chung, an employee in the center, was a retired detective who was the secret man writing them the letter. As he wanted to eliminate Au Gan for years but was lack of evidence, he contrived this plot. Chan was on his own to solve his grudges with Chung and rescued Wong who was seized by Au Gan.
