Skinny Tiger, Fatty Dragon (Chinese: 瘦虎肥龍) is a 1990 Hong Kong action comedy film directed by Lau Kar-wing, who also supporting role. The film stars Sammo Hung and Karl Maka.[1] The trio had worked together in the late 1970s, making two films for Lau and Hung's short-lived Gar Bo Motion Picture Company. Whilst Lau continued to appear in Hung's films for Golden Harvest throughout the 1980s, Maka had gone on to co-run Cinema City. Skinny Tiger, Fatty Dragon was therefore something of a reunion for the three actors.
