'Magic To Win' On HK DVD And Blu-Ray

 

Director Wilson Yip's ('Ip Man') fantasy comedy 'Magic To Win' is now available to own on HK DVD and Blu-Ray. Based on Raymond Wong's classic 80s series 'The Happy Ghost', the film stars Karena Ng as a girl who sees her life undergo a drastic change after she inherits a handful of superpowers.

Synopsis

Nobody knows that Professor Hong Sum Kwai (Raymond Wong) is actually the Water Magician, one of the five elemental wizards. One day, Hong accidentally loses his magical powers, which are transferred to his student Cheng Meisi (Karena Ng). The girl happily uses the superhuman abilities she acquired by luck in life, at school, and on the volleyball court, but those powers also land her in trouble as a war of wizardry rages around her... Fire Magician Bi Yewu (Wu Jing) is desperate to turn back time to change a tragedy in the past, but to do so he needs to bring together the powers of all five elemental wizards. Wood Magician Gu Xinyue (Louis Koo) foresees catastrophe if time is warped, so he alerts the other wizards - including Earth Magician Ling Feng (Wu Chun) and Metal Magician Charlie (Tonny Jan) - to join forces and prevent it from happening...
