Aces Go Places IV
A year before his iconic City on Fire, director Ringo Lam helmed the stunt-filled fourth entry in the famed Aces Go Places franchise, giving the series a slightly harder edge while still carefully balancing the action and laughs. Baldy (Karl Maka) & King Kong (Sam Hui) are back, this time ensnared in a sci-fi styled adventure trying to recover a high-tech prism used to give superhuman powers.
