Millionaire's Express, aka Shanghai Express
movie by Sammo Hung, 1986

mattress-fu? mattress-fu!

What do you get when these people come together in a small town?

Samurai
Cowboys
Mafia
Hookers (with a heart of gold, of course)
Police
Secret Agents
Bandits
Escaped Prisoners
Tourists
and a fat hero in a sweater vest.

You get a great kung fu movie with a ton of laughs.

This movie has it all. Comedy-fu, Romance-fu, Suspense-fu, Action-fu, Train-fu, Fire-fu and even Mattress-fu! And great stunts. It's not in English, but you'll understand what's happening even if you don't read the sub-titles.

Highly recommended.
