King of the Thieves

This film is a box office-oriented comedy film by Wang Jing, an early director. The story is made of a series of robberies caused by the heroes of Water Margin and the descendants of Shi Qian. In addition, a team of actors with deep funny potential can be said to be the mastermind Wang Jing's "either gambling or stealing".The heroes of Water Margin are household stories and can easily arouse the audience's interest; and it is quite reasonable for the descendants of Shi Qian, the "Drum Flea" who became the successors of the shocking thief; and the dramatic conflict between the private detective played by the martial arts star Wang Yu and the thief led by Xie Xian added to the comedy tension of the film, which made people interested.Finally, there was a sudden turn of twists and turns, and other suspects of thieves appeared, which greatly increased the layering and thickness of the film. Who is the real king of the thief?It can be seen from this that Wang Jing was able to stand in the film industry for more than 20 years and repeatedly create funny miracles in the film industry, which is definitely not a false reputation.This film shows that he had a sensitive sense of the Hong Kong film and television entertainment market in his early years. He liked to choose black humor, absurd conflict and drama effect that the audience could understand in terms of expression. He was an almost bold and arrogant "take-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-it-itThis time, this film is also included in the Shaw Brothers classic business card that has been reissued. I believe it will be helpful for movie fans to appreciate Wang Jing's early film style.
