Rob N Roll (Lam see gip on) 2024

Rob N Roll is a 2024 Hong Kong action-comedy film directed by Albert Mak and produced by Derek Yee, starring an ensemble cast including Aaron Kwok, Gordon Lam, and Richie Jen. The plot revolves around a botched major heist that unintentionally involves two dispirited, middle-aged best friends. The main characters are Mui Lam-tin (Kwok), a ruthless and eccentric former professional wrestler turned robber; Robby (Lam), a timid and financially struggling taxi driver; and Mo Yung-fai (Jen), Robby's kind but debt-ridden best friend who runs a nursing home. Lam-tin executes a major armed robbery of a money exchange, making off with a large sum, but the cash inadvertently ends up in Robby's taxi after being misplaced by Lam-tin's accomplice and then mistakenly switched with a smaller haul by a petty criminal. Meanwhile, Fai, desperate to save his nursing home from a significant rent hike, convinces the reluctant Robby to try and commit a robbery themselves, unaware of the fortune hidden in Robby's car boot. A veteran police detective, Ginger (Maggie Cheung Ho-yee), and her junior partner pursue the robbers, eager to crack a major case before her retirement. The story is a twisty-turny tale set over a single day, filled with dark humor and action as the lives of the professional robber, the two amateur wannabes, and the police become intertwined in a chaotic chase for the missing money. The film, which has a runtime of approximately 1 hour and 38 minutes, was released in Hong Kong on January 26, 2024, and is noted for its blend of gritty action and quirky crime-comedy tones, as well as Aaron Kwok's distinct comedic performance as the buck-toothed bandit.
