Lucky Star 2015

About This Movie

Lucky Star 2015 is this wild romp through Hong Kong comedy, boasting a cast that you'd recognize from various hits. Eric Tsang and Wong Cho Lam deliver their usual charm, but it’s Wen Chao, playing a Stephen Chow impersonator, who really grabs your attention. The film has a playful tone, weaving in and out of slapstick and heartfelt moments. The pacing keeps you engaged, bouncing from one gag to another, though it sometimes feels a bit stretched. It’s a celebration, mixed with themes of aspiration and the absurdity of showbiz. The practical effects are surprisingly clever for a comedy of this scale, adding to its quirky vibe. The ensemble cast brings a lively atmosphere that feels very much like a reunion of familiar faces in the Hong Kong film scene.
