This is somewhat of a prelude to the lucky stars of the later hit 'My lucky stars'. Check it out as this is a funny film with a lot of laughs that you will enjoy in a typical Sammo, Jackie Chan film. And yes Jackie is not in the film for that long, as the main characters are the 5 gang of Sammo, Richard Ng and I can't remember the rest. Its about a gang who just got out of jail and somehow get themselves involved with some mafia and are being chased down by them. But thats towards the end as at the start they were only just getting to know each other and they start pulling practical jokes on each other. A good entertaining 80s film highly recommended. Get the DVD digitally remastered version as this contains interviews on the reflection of Sammo from many people and a face I haven't seen for a long time, Elaine Lui.

This is probably Sammo Hung's best work before embarking on his venture to start D&B films. All star cast graces this movie including Jackie Chan, and Yuen Biao. Other stars reads like who's who of Hong Kong movie industry of the '80s. Five ex cons and a girl starts a cleaning service. They just try to make their living, but soon they get involved with local gangsters, by taking their brief case filled with counterfeit money. What results is a mayhem of trouble and actions relating to the six of them. They find themselves in all sorts of strange situations, and compromising positions, but they use their ingenuity to get the best of the gangsters. It's hard to tell if this is a comedy or an action movie. Most of the actors are not action stars, but regular movie actors, so it's not like endless action scenes in Jackie Chan's movies. It's more like old school Hong Kong comedy with some good actions inserted in between the story. Some action scenes involving Jackie Chan is a classic, like the one he hangs on to a car wearing his roller skates during a chase. This is one of the classics from the '80s, and is recommended for viewing.

This Hong Kong movie was one of my favorites from my childhood and still remains a definite must for pure entertainment after all these years. It features an all-star cast, including Sammo Hung, Richard Ng, John Sham, Stanley Fung and Charlie Chin, who star as five reformed criminals that open up a cleaning business. While on the job, they are caught in the middle of a deal-gone-bad between rival triad gangs bent on controlling the counterfeit currency market. Soon, they find themselves having to deal with these bad guys and bring them to justice. The main plot is loosely tied together and not very solid; however, what you get throughout the movie in addition to the main counterfeit currency plot is interesting subplots one after the other, from the five friends' hilarious trip at an outdoor market to Exhaust Pipe's (Richard Ng) embarrassing attempt at being invisible, and from CID 07's (Jackie Chan) pursuit of two petty thieves to the massive car pile-up you would ever see on screen. It's nonstop laughs and gags from start to finish, with a good helping of Kung-Fu action, especially during the well-choreographed and funny ballroom showdown at Jack Tar's (James Tien) mansion, and excellent acting by all the actors involved. In addition to the starring roles of the five friends and the co-starring role of Jackie Chan, you also get a wide range of cameo appearances from Yuen Biao, Moon Lee, Lam Ching-Ying, Wu Ma and the team of stunt-men who appear on screen from Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan's team. And, the beautiful Cherie Chung starring as the female lead is definitely a treat. Any fan of Hong Kong movies would appreciate the action and HK humor this movie has to offer. It's a great good guy vs. bad guy story that all would find very entertaining. Grade A

Well, i bought Winners and Sinners, then i heard, Jackie has a pretty small role. It's true. Jackie appears only in couple fights. He doesnt take part to the final fight. But it doesnt matter. The film is great! I like Samo hung's films a lot. Especially i like the 'lucky stars' series, cos the humor is simple, funny and very unique. Humor is stupid and childish, but it fits in just right. I personally like Richard Ng. He is so funny! Of course there is good fight scenes and stunts. And the massive car crash is great in a low budget movie! Dont let Jackie's short appearance spoil the movie. Dont think this movie as a Jackie Chan movie. Think it as 'The lucky stars' movie!

Winners and Sinners is the first of three films in which Jackie Chan 'co-starred' alongside Samo Hung and five Hong Kong comedians called the Lucky Stars. Actually,'co-starred' is not really the word,because Chan's role in these films was little more than a glorified cameo,especially in this one. Chan puts in small appearances in quite a few films,and distributors often give the impression that his role is larger in a film than it actually is. Still,Winners and Sinners is quite a fun film,actually one of the first Hong Kong films set in the present day that would combine comedy and action. Chan would in time perfect the formula in later films,and Winners and Sinners has rather more comedy than action,which may disappoint action fans. As is often the case,much of the humour,mainly revolving around the antics of the five 'Lucky Stars', does not really work for western audiences,the silly slapstick usually works {well,slapstick always travels well,something Chan had already learnt} but some of it is humour that will only be understood and found funny by a Hong Kong audience. Still,there are some laughs,such as a scene when Richard Ng {easily the funniest of the Lucky Stars} thinks he has become invisable and the rest of the group decide to play along with him,and two very funny comedy fight sequences in which the Lucky Stars try and conceal the fact they can't fight by using silly moves and techniques. Even if there isn't a great deal of action,what there is is still good. Chan's two scraps are two brief,but his chase scene,which has him rollerskate down a busy road and UNDER a moving lorry,climaxing with a car pile-up involving about thirty cars,is terrific,while Samo Hung has some great fight action in the climax. It's a fun,breezy romp which entertains as long as you don't expect too much. And even if you don't find it funny,you can laugh at gaffs such as the fake grass which has creases in it!

Watching "Winners And Sinners" is like going on a treasure hunt: you have to suffer through a lot of corny, childish comedy to get a few prizes. The prizes include: Samo Hung's fight scenes, Yuen Biao's all-too-brief cameo, the long sequence with Jackie Chan that begins with an exhibition of rollerskating stunts, develops into a furious chase and ends with perhaps the biggest, most spectacular car pile-up ever staged, and the one funny scene with the "Lucky Stars", in which one of them believes he is invisible(!). This movie is a mixed bag at best, a scam at worst (for Jackie fans, since the packaging fools them into thinking that he has a major role). (**)

No, don't blame it on the translators. Even in Cantonese, this Sammo Hung-led comedy (and directed by Hung) is a bonkers film that only Hong Kong could turn out when people could enjoy themselves at the cinema instead of being trapped at the stock market with cellphones. Famous HK stars accompany Hung, including Richard Ng and John Shum (in his usual comedic style), while Jackie Chan has a minor role as a CID detective. There really isn't much of a story - far less so than usual - but the stunts are over-the-top and enjoyable just for their destruction. Plenty of comed y is injected into the kung-fu fight scenes, too. It's not for most people - this sort of Hong Kong comedy is more of an acquired taste than the Jackie Chan stuntoramas. See it if you like the style of film; otherwise you'll just sit in front of the telly puzzled.

This is certainly the funniest movie I've ever seen. This kind of silly comedy is really different from "Dumb & Dumber", The ZAZ's, the Peter Sellers'. This is simply unique and Sammo Hung and his lucky stars are the only ones on Earth who can achieve this. The ones who claim a good movie absolutely needs a good story should see "Winners and Sinners". What a pleasure to see these silly lucky stars doing ultra-dumb things. Richard Ng and his team are much funnier than any Chris Rock, Laurel & Hardy or Adam Sandler. It's rather impossible to describe exactly what they are capable of : each time I see this movie I'm about to die. The lucky stars have made some other similar movies but this one is surely the most incredible. It's just a masterpiece.
