Fight Back to School 3 (1993)

Anita Mui was perfectly charming!

I thought there would be a few conflicts between Chow Sing Sing and his girlfriend at the beginning, because of the ending in the second movie. But they decided to skip that part and let them be a normal couple again. I was a little bit disappointed about that. It would be more fun if their relationship were still in trouble while Chow Sing Sing had to go undercover again, and he got to play a husband this time!

It felt a bit lacking without the school setting and Ng Man Tat as his partner like in the previous movies. However, it also made sense to me when he already got promoted and perhaps already married the lady police chief in the second sequel. Meanwhile, to make up for that, I think Stephen Chow and Anita Mui’s interactions and chemistry in this third movie was really great. And another big plus was to see Anita Mui and Charla Cheung as a potential lesbian couple. Too bad that they let a lesbian character be the villain this time though.

I enjoyed this movie, even though it lacked a few things from the original film. It’s still nice to watch as a fun independent movie.
