Gwok chaan Ling Ling Chat (From Beijing with Love) (1994)


It means, how one should not shoot using bra;)



In Beijing, a man with a gold pistol steals a very valuable dinosaur skulls. The Chinese agent 007, Ling Ling Chai (Stephen Chow) who has a license for killing and kissing is sent to Hong Kong to work with local agent Lee Keung Kam (Anita Yuen).

Film classified as comedy, action and thriller. It looks a little as a remake of The Man with the Golden Gun with Roger Moore (1974).

There is all, what is needed in this film.
Handsome agent in a white, impeccably cut suit with a (literally) cigarette to the mouth, dangerous woman, and even two !, lots of gadgets (steel bra, connection with boss via toilet, etc.), treacherous superior, interesting action. In this film there is more action humor than witty dialogues.

My attention was attracted by Kam-Kong Wong and much more by Anita Yuen, who with her freshness and light acting, raised the film's value.
The funniest and the nicest scene is almost at the end, when Ling Ling Chai was shot and then operated by Lee Keung Kam. Here are about 15 minutes of really good part of the film!
But there is one big minus of this film. The scene in gallery, when the father of about seven-year-old son was shot dead in front of son's eyes, was completely unnecessary and aroused my disgust, because this part does not suit to this film completly.

But everyone can watch and share with his/her impression and then we can discuss.
