Sing is an obnoxious spoilt rich kid living in Hawaii with his faithful attendant Tat. He has no friends and spends his time playing malicious tricks on people and womanizing. His life starts to change when he meets a geeky student Chung Chung at school who he calls ugly and her uncle Professor Chang Sze who is a crazy scientific genius. Not long after Sing is caught by crime boss Fumito flirting with his wife.
Fearing for his life, Sing flees home where his mother tells him his real father is Tat. Forced to choose between his real father or a life of luxury, Sing chooses his father. Fumito later sends a group of goons to Sing's house to kill him.  Goon Mark ties Tat and Sing together and plants a bomb. Sing chops of his hand to save his father and is caught in the explosion that destroys all of him except is brain and lips. Sze builds him a new body and transforms him into a cyborg. Tat and Sing then facie their new life together.
Editor's Review of Sixty Million Dollar Man – 6/10
This movie is a little bland and lacking in humour or action and not in the same league as Chow and Man-tat's other movies such as Shaolin Soccer. Despite these problems, it is still enjoyable to watch and has plenty of character.
