Skinny Tiger, Fatty Dragon

(1990)Directed by Lau Kar-Wing104 minAction, Comedy, Crime
“Two righteous detectives, Skinny and Fatty, infuriate their superior by ruining his wedding”

Fatty Dragon (Sammo Hung Kam-bo) is a Hong Kong detective who works undercover with his partner Baldy Mak Sui Fu (Karl Maka), and the two are good at it. They bring in the Triad drug kingpin Tak in the middle of the police commander's wedding, and the department sends them on leave. Lau Kar-Wing builds the film on the easy back-and-forth between Hung and Maka, two old friends who finish each other's insults and cover each other's backs.
