Synopsis:
Past and present survival of the common man in the big city – ups and downs, laughters and tears...
In 1970s Hong Kong, rapacious landlords try to evict 72 tenants but sworn brothers Ha Kung (Eric Tsang) and Shek Kin (Jacky Cheung) help the group of 72 defeat the landlord (Lam Ka Tung) and landlady (Charmaine Sheh) and coincidentally rescue Pinky (Anita Yuen) from a planned forced marriage. When both sworn brothers fall for Pinky and propose to her, she flips a coin and Ha wins her hand in marriage.
The sworn brothers become sworn enemies and Shek’s hatred fuels intense rivalry against Ha in business dealings. Even after 40 years they continue to clash in Sai Yeung Choi Street, Mongkok, but when the street is hit by acid-attacks and rents raised to triple the cost, the 72 tenants unite and pledge to safeguard their home.
Against a background of fear and turmoil, with the old love triangle between Ha and Pinky and Shek still festering, the next generation of the Ha and Shek families embarks on their own heroic love affairs.

My Comments: Today is Sunday and on Monday, ME and Kimmy are not working. So we have planned to go and catch another movie on GSC Tropicana City. This movie is a Chinese New Year movie and both of us haven't watch yet. So without any hesitation, both of us watched the show at 9.15pm at night. This is the 2nd night in a row that we watch the movie together as yesterday we had watch the Hot Summer Days movie. The cinema is not full and not packed either as this movie is an old movie where many of the movie goers already watch it. For me, I would not expect much from this movie because from the preview I saw, it's very boring and just nice. But, everything is just an imagination from me as I watch this movie, I can witness it was very good indeed. It was very funny throughout the movie and there is no chance for you to catch asleep with this movie. The TVB actors did a very good job and nevertheless I would really admire a few people who did well in this movie including Jacky Cheung, Eric Tsang, Kate Chui, Bosco Wong & Wong Cho Lam. They are really good in this movie and very funny and entertaining as well. I was really amazed by this movie and thumbs up to this one as I would like to say sorry for the critics that I have given previously to my friends and I would totally recommend you to watch this movie. If you like laughter and a family movie, this would be a preferrable choice and will laugh out loud in cinemas! Enjoy! MY RATING: 5/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 5/5
