Lady Cop & Papa Crook (Blu-ray) (Director’s Cut) (US Version)
Hong Kong singer-actress Sammi Cheng makes her highly anticipated silver-screen comeback in the kidnapping dramedy Lady Cop & Papa Crook. Appearing in her first film since 2005’s Everlasting Regret, Cheng delivers a signature quirky, lovable performance as an eccentric police inspector who’s an ace in crimefighting, but at a loss in her relationship with a spastic artist. Singer-actor Eason Chan (The Pye-Dog) co-stars as a mob boss who develops an unlikely alliance with Cheng. Frequent collaborators whose previous films include blockbusters Infernal Affairs, Confession Pain, and Initial D, writer-directors Alan Mak and Felix Chong deftly balance crime and comedy elements, making Lady Cop & Papa Crook an entertaining mix of police suspense, triad action, and wry Hong Kong humor. The film also gets impressive mileage from a supporting cast of cops and criminals that includes Chapman To (Trivial Matters), Patrick Tam (Beast Cops), Zhang Guoli (Telephone 601), Michelle Yip (Moonlight in Tokyo), Kate Tsui (Eye in the Sky), Richie Jen (Exiled), Ricky Chan (Confession of Pain), Liu Kai Chi, singer Wilfred Lau, and Conroy Chan (The Heavenly Kings).
World-weary family man John Fok (Eason Chan) is a loving father and the head of a crime organization whose main operation involves smuggling diesel from China to Hong Kong. He’s forced to put business on hold after a Mainland police sting results in massive losses and multiple deaths. While he’s laying low, rival triads, squabbling relatives, and police on both sides of the border begin making their moves, but Fok isn’t about to take things sitting down. When his son is kidnapped, however, he has no choice but to welcome quirky, straight-talking Inspector Maureen Szeto (Sammi Cheng) into his home. To save Fok’s son, the cops and the crooks will have to work together, but first they have to stop fighting each other.
This edition comes with both the film’s Theatrical Cut version and Director’s Cut featuring an alternate ending. Includes making of and trailer..
