Plot

The movie begins with the robbery of a cat statue relic exhibited at a museum in Marseille, France. Maggie (Song Ji-hyo), Head of Security for the museum, gives chase after the robber, Gary (David Belle) but he manages to escape.

Next plot sees Mali (Chen He) racing down the busy city streets of Shanghai on a small motorbike to deliver a package to a client on time. He makes it as the digital clock ticks down to the very last second. Later, he goes to play mahjong with his future mother-in-law (He Saifei) and her clique of friends as Nana (Li Yuan) his girlfriend watches. His future mother-in-law does not think much of him and belittles him as they play. He wins all the games to the extremely obvious displeasure and disgruntlement of his future mother-in-law.

At the office, Mali's boss, Lao Qian (Tai Chih-yuan) entices him to make a delivery to a very important client, Wang Sangbiao (Xiao Yang) whom he disdains very much despite his initial refusal. He completes his delivery after manoeuvring his way through his usual back alleys and overcoming the obstructions put up by the residents there.

At Wang Sangbiao's residence, he is met by Maggie at the door. Here begins Mali's adventures with Maggie, being flying-kicked, punched and tied up by Maggie, being chased by Gary and his assistant, Ryan (Mason Lee), chasing Gary and Ryan, rescuing Nana from Gary and Ryan, finally fighting Gary and Ryan in a speedboat. All because of the stolen cat statue relic. The movie ends on a happy note.

Reception

The film grossed CN¥61.6 million in China.[1]

gollark: I like F#, which is a FP language with no brackets or anything which is compatible with C#/.NET stuff.
gollark: C++ is like C but stupider and overcomplicated, and C# is totally different.
gollark: I mean, I don't like C very much (as a general application programming language) because it is very unsafe, but unlike PHP it actually has... some amount of design.
gollark: * bad
gollark: PHP is the enemy of mankind. PHP must be destroyed at all costs. Unless the costs involve using COBOL or something.
