Hong Kongs answer to Three Men & a Baby
- with Jackie Chan! Following 2004s New Police Story, the affable superstar teams up with director Benny Chan again for Rob-B-Hood, a hilarious action comedy that pulls out all the punches
- & the diapers. Rob-B-Hood was a huge box office hit in Hong Kong & China, proving that Jackie Chan is still more than capable of delivering the goods. The action-packed film is filled with his trademark comedic fight sequences, inventive stunts, & jaw-dropping car chases. Jackie teams up with veteran actor Michael Hui & heartthrob Louis Koo ( Election) for the first time, & the three show great comedic chemistry as partners in crime & babysitting. Yuen Biao makes a welcome appearance, while a host of celebrity cameos keeps the stargazers busy. Pride of place, however, goes to baby Matthew Medvedev, the criminally cute star of the film who has reportedly already signed a management contract with Jackie Chans company.
Small-time burglars Thongs (Jackie Chan), Octopus (Louis Koo), & Landlord (Michael Hui) have some cash flow & people issues. Thongs has a gambling problem that empties his wallets & estranges him from his family. Octopus wastes all his money on girlfriends, while neglecting his pregnant wife (Charlene Choi). Mastermind Landlord, who is saving up for retirement with his mentally unstable wife (veteran singer Teresa Carpio), gets robbed of his hard-earned loot. Though the thieving trio pride themselves on having moral standards, the need for cash leads them to take a shady kidnapping job. With the golden baby (Matthew Medvedev) in tow, Thongs & Octopus are soon in over their heads trying to appease the finicky tot & figure out this whole parenting thing, while avoiding the police, debtors, & various unsavory characters who will go to all lengths to get that baby.
