Hong Kong Cinema dream team Johnnie To & Wai Ka Fai team up with a stellar cast led by Andy Lau for the blockbuster mahjong comedy Fat Choi Spirit! Released during the Chinese New Year holiday in 2002, the festive crowd-pleaser garnered great word-of-mouth for taking the traditional gambling genre to a new level on account of its smart, funny script & colorful characters played by the likes of Gigi Leung, Louis Koo, Cherrie Ying, & Lau Ching Wan.
"e; Mahjong Master"e; Andy once incurred huge debts & the hatred of his younger brother Louis due to his relentless passion for the game. Years later, when Louis gets cheated out of all his money in a game of mahjong with con artists Ching Wan & Cherrie, Andy avenges him by defeating Ching Wan on the mahjong table. But once his ex-girlfriend Gigi, who was ditched for her dubious morals at the game, curses him out of frustration at his repeated rejection, Andy begins to fall on a streak of bad luck!
