Sammo Hung Kam-boโs Wheels on Meals (1984) operates on a simple premise: unite three of Hong Kongโs greatest martial arts talents and let the magic happen.
If that was not enough, the action scenes are superb, and the fights are rightly considered to be some of the very best that the โThree Dragonsโ have performed on screen.
Hungโs fight choreography has always been more hard-hitting than Chanโs, and here his direction mixes goofing around with tough competition-style combat to outstanding effect.
As the Post reviewer in 1984 put it: โThis jet-speed Cantonese comedy directed by funnyman martial arts expert Sammo Hung is the type of attraction that motivates people from Shau Kei Wan to San Po Kong to come out of their routine lives and jobs [and] then straight to the movie-houses.โ
