This film is an early box-office comedy directed by Wong Jing, known as a good remedy for box office success. The story humorously revolves around a series of heists triggered by the heroes of Water Margin and the descendants of the legendary thief, Si Kwan. With a cast full of comedic potential, it truly showcases Wong Jing's clever production concept of "either gambling or stealing." The heroes of Water Margin are a well-known story that easily piques the audience's interest; the idea that the descendant of "The Flea on the Drum" Si Kwan becomes a master thief is quite plausible. The dramatic conflict between the private detective played by kung fu star Wong Yu and the King of Thieves led by Xie Xian adds comedic tension, making it entertaining to watch. Finally, a surprising twist introduces other stealing suspects, greatly enhancing the film's complexity and depth. Who is truly the King of Thieves? Thus, it is evident that Wong Jing has established himself in the film industry for over 20 years and continues to create comedic miracles, never just a name without substance. This film showcases his keen sense of the Hong Kong film and entertainment market from an early age, favoring easily understandable forms of black humor, absurd conflicts, and theatrical effects. He is a daring "pick-and-choose" creator, combining talent, popularity, and flair in his filmmaking. This film has also been included in the newly restored collection of Shaw Brothers classics, which will help movie fans appreciate Wong Jing's early film style.
