	Samuel Hui - Biography of Samuel Hui
		Samuel Koon-kit Hui (許冠傑, pinyin: Xǔ Guànjié; born September 4, 1948) was a star in Cantopop and movie industry in Hong Kong's 1960s to 1990s.
		His music appealed to the Hong Kong masses and working class people with its simple lyrics and easy-on-the-ears nature which was the rage in Hong Kong music in the late 1970s.
		On a personal note, he was more closer to elder brother Ricky Hui as opposed to Michael Hui as they were said to have parted in high dudgeon since falling out with each other after their pre-1985 successes and have thereafter not featured together in any more films.

		Hui's first work in film was in a movie by Taiwanese director Li Han-Hsiang called The Warlord, (å¤§è»é—¥ or "The Great Regime", 1972), where he played a farcical warlord in post-revolutionary China.
		Hui has continued acting and producing his own comedies, albeit at a less prolific rate, where he is regarded as the veritable predecessor comedian before Stephen Chow.
		Earlier Hui comedies are usually episodic gags which capitalize on the comedic appeal of him and his brothers, but later Hui developed a brand of satiric comedy which combines a character-driven story-line with his own underplayed comic talent.

		After over a decade, Samuel Hui and Karl Maka reunite for this comedy that highlights some of the new young talent in Hong Kong.
		Imagine an old Hui Brothers comedy along the lines of Games Gamblers Play, where most of the comedy was verbal and not enough in the physical sense, and add a fresh young cast.
		Hui's character sort of narrates the story but gives a perspective on hustling as it relates to the film.

		Lit is fortunate to meet ambitious wannabe reporter Bill (Samuel Hui) who, after saving the editor from a beating by thugs who were angered by an article, is hired as a new face for the team.
		In what is essentially a re-working of the seminal 'The Private Eyes', Michael, Samuel and Ricky are on top form, dispelling the worrying fears that the magic had died since 'Security Unlimited'.
		Their characters are the same (Michael is the bullying tyrant; Samuel is the laid-back opposition to his older brother's dominance; and Ricky is the harassed employee) but their interplay has the sheer transcendence that viewers could compare to the Jackie Chan/Sammo Hung/Yuen Biao teamings.

	The Contract
		The Hui brothers combine efforts to create another outstanding piece of canto-comedy that mixes clever satire of the entertainment industry and slapstick comedy.
		Michael Hui's famous canto-babble (that would later inspire Chow Sing Chi) may go over the heads of those not fluent in the language, but the dead-pan delivery and supreme talent he displays is plain for all to see.
		The Contract shows the Hui brothers near the top of their game and follows the familiar characterisations that audiences expect to see in a Hui brothers comedy.

	Chicken and Duck Talk (Ji tong ya jiang) Film Review - Time Out Film
		Cantonese comedy generally doesn't travel too well, but Michael Hui's comeback movie (he made a series of Tashlin-esque classics in the '70s) would be a riot in any context.
		Hui plays the stingy, stupid and backward-looking proprietor of a traditional duck restaurant; his meagre turnover plummets when a bright new fast-food chicken joint opens across the street.
		He frantically tries to stop his resentful staff from defecting, while dreaming up stunts to win back lost customers; the plot is garnished with everything from inspired slapstick to mother-in-law jokes.

	Front Page (Xin Ban Jin Ba Liang) Film Review - Time Out Film
		Although it does feature a sub-text criticising tabloid journalism in Hong Kong, this is first and foremost a Michael Hui comedy - the first in many years to reunite him with his brothers Sam and Ricky, young hero and eternal fall guy respectively.
		It's not as funny as Hui's Chicken and Duck Talk, but the patchwork script has a satisfying integrity of structure, the performances are terrific, and there are plenty of droll situations and sight gags.
		Michael Hui himself shines in his usual role as the would-be tyrant unable to sustain his tyranny; this time the character is a news magazine editor trying to stave off the official receiver.

		Samuel Hui, Cecilia Yip, Jacky Cheung, Sharla Cheung Man, Fennie Yen, Lau Siu Ming, Yuen Wah, Lau Shun, Lam Ching Ying, Wu Ma Swordsman is a film that is commonly viewed for its importance rather than for its merits.
		Swordsman Ling (The Laughing and Proud Warrior) is played capably by Samuel Hui (Aces Go Places), and Cecilia Yip (Winners and Sinners) is Ling's 'little brother' Kiddo.
		Blue Phoenix (Fennie Yen) is compelling as a snake charmer / martial artist, and it is no surprise that she was asked to work on the sequel to Swordsman (unlike all the other cast members!).

		A French-American adaptation was later released by director Christophe Gans in 1995 as Crying Freeman and it put the competent martial arts star Mark Dacascos in the title role.

		Sam Hui is decent as an action lead, but he isn't right for the role.
