Languages: Cantonese 粵語, Mandarin 普通話 國語 / Subtitles: English, Traditional Chinese 繁體中文字幕, Simplified Chinese 簡體中文字幕 / Synopsis: Internationally proclaimed comic genius Stephen Chow plays petty, arrogant god Dragon Fighter Lo Han, who is changed into "Monk Chai" and ordered to alter the fates of three bad people on earth, lest he be retransmigationized. Unfortunately for him (but to any viewer's delight) the trio he finds are a prostitute (played by the radiant, remarkably talented Maggie Cheung Man-yuk), a beggar (played by award-winning actor Anthony Wong), and a cold-blooded killer. 杜琪峯和周星馳合作《審死官》，大破香港電影賣座紀錄，再接再勵，拍出神怪特技喜劇《濟公》，卻罕有地充滿悲情和言志。「降龍羅漢」(周星馳) 本性反叛，與眾仙打賭，立志感化三個註定淪為「九世乞丐」(黃秋生)、「九世妓女」(張曼玉)、「九世惡人」(黃志強) 之凡人，將他們救出苦海。濟公感化世人，執著於對眾生之愛，贏得眾仙認同，被封為尊者。周星馳嘗試在搞笑之餘，加入悲天憫人的情懷。

Not Chow's best
This is an older Stephen Chow movie, so the special effects are lousy and the story line is jumpy. The dialogue is fast and the story makes many references to different Chinese myths and legends. If you're not familiar with at least some Chinese and Chinese culture, it can be difficult to understand. It's in Mandarin not Cantonese as it was originally shot. The English translation is lazy and uses many PG-13 rate curse words.

Traditional Comedy Film
The premise of the film is some gods/faeries arguing what is right and wrong in their meddling with the mortals. It was understood that each mortal has a fate and cannot be changed. So one of the gods/faeries decides to go down to Earth and attempt to change the fate to prove the other gods/faeries wrong. This is a traditional Stephen Chow comedy, which of course includes all the funny scenes you'd expect.

I like it.
It was a fairly nice story based on some Chinese traditional fairy tale. It would be more suitable for those viewers with some Chinese cultural background. I indeed enjoy it very much.
