Prolific screenwriter Lau Ho Leung (The Great Magician) makes his directorial debut with cops-and-robbers action comedy, Two Thumbs Up, which stars Francis Ng (Triumph In The Skies) as low-level gangster Big F, who's just gotten out of prison. He wastes no time in tracking down his old comrades, picking up bowling alley employee Crazy B (Simon Yam, Election), back-alley hairstylist Johnny T (Patrick Tam, As The Light Goes Out) and mechanic East L (Mark Cheng, A True Mob Story) in quick succession.
As it turns out, Big F has a nice pay-day planned for the gang. He wants to rob a truck transporting dirty money across the Mainland Hong Kong border, and to do that, the gang's got to pose as police officers. On the day of the heist, the men set off in their minibus-turned-police-vehicle dressed as cops and armed with BB guns. What they don't know is that another group of criminals also has its sights set on the truck – and they have AK-47s. Two Thumbs Up is released on English subtitled DVD and Blu-ray on June 11, 2015.
