97 Aces Go Places
Eternal 25 year-old Alan Tam is a wimpy triad boss who must avenge his dad because he had a heart attack after losing at cards to a pretty cat burglar. For help, he enlists Drunk Shooter, HK’s ace gunman, who’s also an incredible souse. Problem: Christy ripped off wacky triad boss Francis Ng, so he wants her, too. Even worse, Alan just doesn't want to kill Christy because she’s too damn beautiful. Hijinks ensue.

Sadly Over-hyped
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
As long as you try to think of it as being purely a low budget comedy you'll be OK rather than a 'sequal' to Aces Go Places.It bears very little similarities to the older films. It tries some slapstick but fails wherever it tries to emulate the successes of the past.No Sam Hui, no Karl Maka. None of the glue that held the original films together, no chemistry between the actors and even the sexy Christy Cheung does very little in this film deserving any merit.Having said all this, it's not a terrible film. It's not good, but it's not a terrible film. Light hearted once off viewing if you happen to come across the DVD or the VCD but don't expect amazing comedy or a return to the good old days of King Kong and Baldy.
