Carry On Hotel is a curious blend of comedy and crime, with Mr. Lau as our dubious detective. The film revels in absurdity, especially when that glam rock band barges in. It’s a chaotic mix of voyeurism and slapstick, with Lau’s camera antics leading to some genuinely wacky moments. The pacing can feel a bit jarring, but that adds to the charm, as we hop from Lau’s sticky situations to the misadventures of the thief Donald Ng, who plays at being a ninja. The performances are lively, even if they lean into caricature at times. It's that distinctive blend of silliness and chaos that sets it apart in the genre, not to mention the practical effects that add a tangible feel to the madness.
