7/10
Winners and sinners
21 January 2023
A group of petty thieves who meet in prison decide to go straight and start a cleaning business when they get out. Meanwhile CID 07 (Jackie Chan) is on the trail of a counterfeiter whose printing plates get lost and wind up in the cleaning van owned by our five reformed heroes. Available in both dubbed full-screen and subtitled widescreen version

The first in the Lucky stars series is, as other entries, is daft, zany and fun. The best comic scene is the bit where one of the Lucky stars strips naked and walks around believing that he's invisible, while the others act like they don't see him. Of course, the usual lusting after the girl - in this case Cherie Chung - scene is here, but there's no pervy scenes. As for the action, Jackie, in a downsized appearance, gets in a full on high speed car chase on roller skates, and ducks underneath a lorry, plus there's a car chase ending in a 50-car pileup. There's some frenetically comic kungfu, but comedy takes precedence. Along with My Lucky Stars this is a strong entry.
