god of gamblers (1989)


AKA Du shen.
"Do you play the gamble?"
A legendary gambler Ko Chun (Chow Yun-Fat) decides to help a friend pay a debt by using his skill at gambling. Unfortunately Ko has an accident and suffers memory loss, reverting to a child-like state. The friends who are responsible for the accident take on the responsibility of caring for the retarded Ko and soon get into mischief when they discover that Ko has not lost his gambling skills...
Intense drama, lively comedy and violent action, this has it all. All done in that idiosyncratic Hong Kong style. What's not to like. But be warned, don't go into it expecting it to be wall to wall action.
