Premise

[edit]

The film depicts a constable (捕快) named Li Mao who is married to Yang Jiazhen, a woman from a rich family, who unexpectedly discovers that he is the spitting image of the crown prince. Li Mao wants to go to the imperial palace to get a promotion, while the crown prince wishes to leave the palace and live freely. As a result, the two switch identities, but are drawn into the schemes of high officials.[3]

Release

[edit]

The film was originally scheduled for release on 31 December 2021, but this was pushed back to 1 January 2022.[5]

Reception

[edit]

Derek Elley wrote that though enjoyable, the film falls short of its potential as it "relies on pratfall comedy, wordplay, and cameo appearances...rather than a plot with real character development and architecture."[6]
