Knock Off Page #4

Synopsis: A Hong Kong fashion designer (Jean Claude Van Damme, if you can believe that billing) who had previously been involved in knock offs of major label merchandise, such as "Pumma" running shoes, attempts to go straight with the help of his new partner (Rob Schneider), who is secretly an undercover CIA agent involved in an investigation of the black market. Their main product, jeans, is involved in the knock offs, which brings a representative (Lela Rochon) of the American company to investigate. Paul Sorvino also appears as the head of the CIA operation in Hong Kong. However, just as Schneider is not as he initially seems, everyone in the film switches roles by film's end.

- Confirm, deactivate weapons.

- Confirmed. Return to base.

- Roger, returning to base.

- Phew! That was a close one.

Come on, come on.

Move your asses up to the tower!

Go!

We are under heavy fire.

See if it's clear.

It's gonna blow!

Come on, it's gonna blow!

Let's go, start the engine!

- We're all gonna die.

- I'm doing my best.

Are you okay?

- Are you all right? What happened?

- I smoked his fat ass.

Look. It's his detonator.

What are you Iooking for?

Johansson.

Victoria Harbour lights up with the

first fireworks of the hand-over, -

- kicking off a two-day

fireworks extravaganza -

- where over $ 100 million

will literally go up in smoke.

Fireworks seems particularly

meaningful in these two nights, -

- as the world watches Hong Kong

put on its biggest-ever show...

They found explosives in our jeans?

People don't want that.

Some people do.

- Check this out.

- You're crazy, that's evidence.

I've checked. The average American

home has 3.57 remote controls.

How about one that did everything?

The VCR, TV, jacuzzi, sprinklers...

You turn that thing

and the garage opens up.

- We know nothing about electronics.

- So let's stick to what we know.

A special report. A loud explosion

was witnessed in Kowloon -

- shortly after the fireworks began.

Spectators saw green flames.

The authorities will not say whether

the explosion was part of the show.

What do you know? Massage

parlours? Gambling? Booze?

Not bad. If I had a Iot of money,

I'd start my own football league.

Only women players.

Then I'd be the only guy.

No action movie would be complete

without sweat.
