Shang Jing

I’m not entirely sure what this one’s about, folks, but that hasn’t stopped me from watching the embedded trailer a couple of times tonight. It’s a little jarring and a touch annoying, but that, I think, is what makes this film so alluring. Although a proper synopsis detailing a few plot points would be nice to have, all you really need to know about the flick resides in its title. There is, in fact, a dinner party taking place, and crazy things are happening at a mad rapid pace. Beyond that, your guess is as good as mine. But don’t waste your time over-thinking it. Director Shang Jing’s “Crazy Dinner Party”, which stars Fan Wei, Huang Bo, Monica Mok, Liu Hua, and Liang Guanhua, opens in China on January 23rd, 2012. When will the rest of us get to partake in said festivity? That remains to be seen

After an eighty episode run on mainland Chinese television, Shang Jing's popular kung fu comedy makes the jump to the big screen with this feature version.

万里の長城から西に位置する荒野の町で、中華麺（めん）屋を経営するごう慢な中年男ワン（ニー・ターホン）。妻が若い従業員と浮気をしており、ひそかに銃を購入したことを知ったワンは激怒し、2人の殺害を警察官のチャン（スン・ホンレイ）に依頼する。麺屋の金庫にある大金に目をつけていたチャンはワンの思いとは違う行動に出るが、事態は思わぬ方向へ動き出す。
