City Under Siege
Don’t let the title fool you into thinking this is some sort of epic war movie. The latest comedy/action flick from director Benny Chan (Shaolin) is the story of a pathetic circus clown named Sunny (Aaron Kwok) who dreams of one day wiping the grease paint off his face and doing a knife throwing act instead. His dreams are shattered when he follows the other performers on a midnight adventure searching for lost gold that instead uncovers a stash of super soldier nerve gas left over from World War II. Exposed to the toxic gas, the performers all become mutants who go on a violent crime spree. Except Sunny, who instead grows extremely fat, and then grows back to normal size except he now has super powers he can use to fight the mutant bad guys. It sounds a lot more complicate than it is, and the fact is that the story hardly matters once the mutants and Sunny start beating each other up.
