The Cantonese version of this movie's title sounds like 009 (like Bond's Agent 007). It sounds like 9, but the Chinese character is actually "Dog" (similar sounding). It's about an emperor who has his Royal elite bodyguards - 12 in fact. Each of the royal guards is named after the animals on the lunar calendar (i.e. Rat, Snake, Dragon etc). Agent "Dog" is slightly unique. While the other bodyguards are highly skilled in martial arts; he's the brainy one who rid the enemies with his gadgets.
The movie is certainly very funny with Louis Ku's poker face & Sandra Ng's hilarious facial expressions. However got to admit, as in most comedies, it's not really worth going to the movies for. Probably a VCD / DVD (original pls.... cummon lar... only RM19.90 for the whole family wor... still cheaper than going to the cinemas right) would suffice.
Not as belly aching funny as Kungfu Hustle, but still a good watch. More suitable for those who are well versed in Cantonese / Chinese, cos' some of the jokes can only be understood if you know the language.
