Director Derek Kwok loves his losers, whether it’s the geriatric martial arts masters of Gallants, or the hapless demon hunter of Stephen Chow’s Journey to the West. Now, he turns his attention to badminton and transforms it into a martial art. Washed-up former 90’s pop star, Ekin Cheng, plays one of three crooks fresh out of prison and desperate to start new lives. Josie Ho plays the washed-up former badminton champion who agrees to be their Yoda. Full of berserk camerawork, crazed performances, meteors shaped like shuttlecocks, and a go-for-broke, anything-for-the-joke attitude, this is a scorched earth comedy that leaves the screen in tatters and doesn’t end until the last racquet explodes.
