DanTheMan 2 @DanTheMan2150AD 3d A clash between old-world discipline and new-world confidence that blends fun and fighting as only Lau Kar-Leung could, The Lady Is the Boss is loud, chaotic and hilariously abrasive, fully embracing its oddball identity. Spending its early acts indulging in absurdist gags, it does begin to lose focus around the midway point, throwing caution to the wind with its spotty scripting; however, the film really comes alive during its many inventive and highly entertaining fight sequences, adorably adapting Lau's choreography style for practical purposes, exchanging bloody fisticuffs for dance fights and shimmering blades for BMX bikes and gymnastic equipment. Comedy certainly takes precedence over elegance and means that while The Lady Is the Boss is not as refined as some of Lau's other works, it's lively, assertive and hard not to enjoy on its own rambunctious terms.
