Twinkle, Twinkle Lucky Stars

Twinkle, Twinkle Lucky Stars (1985) is a Hong Kong action-comedy from Sammo Hung you can watch online on iFILM. It's the third Lucky Stars outing, with a gang of goofball friends pressed back into amateur detective work.

A special police unit is chasing a crime syndicate that runs between Hong Kong and Bangkok. When their informant is killed, they call in the Lucky Stars — a crew of charming layabouts led by Sammo Hung himself. The plot ambles through botched stakeouts and slapstick mischief, mostly stalling until it can cash in on what everyone's waiting for: the brawl.

And what a brawl. The finale finally puts Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao — the three Peking Opera "brothers" — in the same frame, with a young Michelle Yeoh turning up along the way. The comedy is hit-or-miss, but the fight choreography is peak 1980s Hong Kong. Stream Twinkle, Twinkle Lucky Stars (1985) online on iFILM.
