In order to squeeze pennies out of unsuspecting scaredy victims, he masquerades as a member of the dapper but deadly, Axe Gang. The Axe Gang hack rival gangs to pieces and then celebrate with a song-and-dance number in top hats and tails. When Sing and his overweight, unnamed sidekick enter the especially awful slum Pig Sty Alley their ruse doesn't wash with the locals, who are ruled by an iron-fisted, chain-smoking landlady and her drunken husband.
The slum dwellers are revealed as Kung Fu masters who've been living in disguise among the poor. There's a chef, who uses his martial arts skills to shape pastry, and a gay tailor, who uses curtain rings as weapons. The shrieking landlady can run like the wind and her husband can bend his body like plastic. The calamity soon grabs the attention of the real Axe Gang, who wants a piece of the action. And make no mistake, the action is as jaw-dropping as it is deliriously demented.

Stephen Chow began as a temporary actor for TVB. He entered TVB in the early 1980s and was trained there, although he had few opportunities to appear in films. Chow graduated from TVB's acting classes in 1982. Chow began to find some success with the children's program 430 Space Shuttle, which he co-hosted with Tony Leung Chiu-Wai.
In 1987, Chow entered into the movie industry through the film Final Justice, which won him the Taiwan Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actor. While Chow became quite well known on TVB for his comedies (especially 1989's The Final Combat), he shot to stardom in the 1990s All for the Winner. This film made him and his older sidekick Ng Man-Tat two of the most sought-after stars in the Hong Kong film industry. Chow would collaborate with Ng on many of his more successful comedies, including Shaolin Soccer. Chow became Hong Kong's undisputed No. 1 comedian, taking over the mantle of Michael Hui.

Nonetheless, on the mainland Chow rapidly became one of Hong Kong's most iconic film stars.
In 2001 his film Shaolin Soccer grossed over 60 million HK dollars. The film won Best Picture, and Chow won Best Actor and Best Director at the 2002 Hong Kong Film Awards, receiving a total of seven wins from 2001-2003, including the Blue Ribbon Award for Best Foreign Language Film and the Golden Bauhinia Award for Best Picture and Best Director. It was his first international hit and established his reputation in the West. In 2004 he directed the film Kung Fu Hustle winning 18 awards including BAFTA Best Film Not in the English Language, five Golden Horse Awards, and six Hong Kong Film Awards.
