Full of old-fashioned feelings in the past

Story: 3 | Acting: 3 | Visual: 2 | Music: 2 | Overall: 3

This New Year's comedy directed by the cold-faced laughter Lam Man-Chung. The film tells about a old folks home in the countrysiden become precarious because of the unscrupulous businessman of the mercenary is eager to move, and how the group of old folks who have been forgotten by society, to turn around and protect their home . . The film's old man corps is a group of former Hong Kong superstars, Sammo Hung, Richard Ng, Teddy Robin Kwan, Leung Sui-Lung, Tien Niu, self-directed Lam Mun-Chung, plus several new generations of comedy stars, Cheung Kai-Chung, Ivana Wong, Bob Lam, The lineup is strong, but I thought that this powerful line of laughter stars will bring a series of laughter stories, but I can't think of the plot, even Lam Mun-Chung, who has always been ignorant, has become a serious one. It is undeniable that some dialogues can make people smile. Although the plot is old-fashioned, it is thought-provoking, and it is full of old-fashioned feelings in the past. Feeling that the old one is a bit outdated, but the new one can be added in time!
