Surprisingly incoherent and boring
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
The Unmatchable Match (1989) was one of the few attempts that Danny Lee made when he tried to turn Stephen Chow into an action star. After a few tries, he finally realized that he was a comedian at heart. This was another one of Magnum's attempts to market Stephen Chow as an action star. In this movie, he plays a lowly ranked officer who wants to rise in rank. The only option he has is to become an undercover cop. But the assignment he's giving is a very risky one. All attempts to have a cop infiltrate this powerful triad have all ended in tragedy. Will Chow make inside without being spotted? Can he topple this crime lord and juggle a relationship with his hot girlfriend? To find out watch THE UNMATCHABLE MATCH!! Co-stars Danny Lee, Shing Fui-On and Vivian Chow.Recommended for Stephen Chow fans.
This movie has undercover cop Stephen Chow trying to catch the bad guy by joining his gang. It's ultimately a forgettable movie. It's nice while you watch it - there are a few jokes that are pure Stephen Chow - but those are the only parts worth remembering.The typical relationship fights and friendships are inevitable, so that takes away some of the fun. You're waiting for these two people to argue or these two people to become friends, so that that the movie can move on to other things. Otherwise the movie moves along nicely.It's not as funny or as entertaining as many of his other movies but it's still enjoyable. There's more drama in this movie than many of his other movies, so if you see this be aware of that fact. Relationships are strong in here, as are loyalty and the other usual cop/triad values. Nice watch, but I'd say only if you're a Stephen Chow fan (or a HUGE Danny Lee fan).
