Although in the west, Hong Kong is known for martial arts movies and thrillers, the locals mainly enjoy Cantonese comedies filled with burlesque gags, exaggerating acting, and humour specific for Cantonese language. One of those is a recent movie called Horseplay, which strikes us with its fresh nonchalant mood. The premise is a chase after a valuable ceramic horse statue. The characters chasing after this priceless artefact are a Hong Kong policeman, a Chinese state employee, an ambitious journalist and a brilliant thief. (Filmasia)
