Cast:
Yuen Biao
Issei Ogata
Synopsis/Plot:
Final story stars Yuen Biao, then living out the remnants of his super-stardom in Japan, where he reportedly equaled the fame of Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. Issei Ogata (now in the Sokurov film as controversial Emperor Hirohito) has a cameo sending nice, grinning vibes.
Yuen assumes a convincing, dedicated immigrant who is very lost, and bamboozled, in Japan. Fired as a clerk at camera shop, Hoi (Yuen) is taken under the wings of a con-woman, who whips him into a constant state of arousal using her assets and sweet cooing. He gladly hands over to her his credit card and identity in anticipatory, gleeful lust -- even if it means putting up with the groping as one of the foreign waiters in a gay bar!
Like an oversexed version of Yuen's other "Fish out of water" characters, he is able to turn potential soft-core into rather expert sex comedy -- all the while speaking entirely in "katakoto", or broken Japanese by foreigners. Indeed, Yuen's career in the late 80s/early 90s ran a stretch of self-reinventions to break out of his virtuous, "boy innocent" roles of dazzling acrobatics.
The low-budget BAKAYARO! lacks the personnel and training for HK action, so the customary final fight is only a fleeting nod to Yuen's renowned fighting form. Unlike his later "slumming" in Filipino productions, Yuen is challenged to portray canny emotional realism of a stranded immigrant, in the guise of comic sexual frustration too racy ("category III" for his HK jobs.
