Aces Go Places 2 (1983) If the first Aces Go Places gave you hives, then you should probably stay away. Inevitable sequel to the original Aces Go Places finds King Kong (Sam Hui) and Kodojak/Baldy/Albert (Karl Maka) in deep trouble when they get framed for multiple robberies. Even worse, many of the jokes are language based, meaning you should prepare to be lost. www.lovehkfilm.com /reviews_2/aces_go_places_2.htm   (310 words)

The Illuminated Lantern - Asian Cinema Reviews: Aces Go Places V The Terracotta Hit Aces Go Places V The Terracotta Hit is the last in a series of films which were in many ways a watershed in Hong Kong Cinema. The Aces Go Places series established, once and for all, that chop-socky wasn't all the little island colony was capable of producing. Aces Go Places V is a pretty solid film, and although Hong Kong audiences may have considered it the worst of the bunch, they did so because they were perhaps looking for a more hollywood-like style. www.illuminatedlantern.com /cinema/review/archives/aces_go_places_v_the_terracotta_hit.php   (840 words)

Aces Go Places 2 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia King Kong placed his white kit on the ground, both Albert and King Kong took out their helmets and a remote control for operating the robot.

The show ends with the police chief and the psychopath walked off marching, "Bee Bo Bee Bo Bee Bo...", imitating the sound of the police siren as Nancy, Albert and King Kong looks on. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Aces_Go_Places_2   (1719 words)

The "Aces Go Places" music video is well placed in the middle of the film sung by Sam Hui himself. The movie spawned 5 sequels Aces Go Places 2, AGP 3: Our Man From Bond Street, ACE 4, ACE 5: The Terncotta Hit, and Aces Go Places 97, although ACE 97 is a sequel in name only, sort of what Halloween 3 is to that series. www.imdb.com /title/tt0084955   (362 words)

Aces Go Places Aces Go Places was intentionally done with an international audience in mind, using a (relatively) large budget, western actors and crew, references to Hollywood movies and television shows, and a smattering of English dialogue (some of the Cantonese jokes were also tweaked somewhat to translate better). The movie also has, in many ways, the feel of a old-time Hollywood serial, with cliffhangers or other twists occurring at the end of every reel (15 minutes). If you've never seen a Hong Kong comedy before, Aces Go Places is an excellent place to start. www.hkfilm.net /aces.htm   (290 words)

Aces Go Places 2 review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) The Italian mafia are the main villains again; sending their top killer ‘Filthy Harry’, a Clint Eastwood double, to rid of the two ‘aces’. There are some good action scenes such as a mad motorbike chase and a nightclub punch up (with choreography from Lau Kar Wing). ‘Aces Go Places 2’ is never meant to be taken seriously, is never dull and successfully entertains for the 90 minute running time. home.clara.net /carly/acesgoplaces2.htm   (252 words)

DVD Verdict Review - The Mad Mission Collection Mad Mission II: Aces Go Places (1983): Picking up right after the last Mad Mission, the United States Government is angry with the seeming inability of anyone, anywhere, to capture Sammy, Kody, and Hot Tongue.

Aces Go Places 5 If I have to tell you this is part of the ‘Aces Go Places’ box set released by IVL, then you haven’t been reading my other reviews. The movie passes the torch to some new ‘Aces’, Leslie Cheung and Nina Li (both of whom, by the way, are absent from the sixth part), and it’s a fitting transition. The sixth part had none of the same cast or crew as any of the other movies in the series, so this can probably be considered the last real ‘Aces Go Places’ movie. www3.sympatico.ca /patrik/acesgoplaces5.html   (1298 words)
