Wheels on Meals is a 1984 action-comedy movie that combines elements of traditional kung fu movies with a more modern, urban setting. The film is directed by Sammo Hung, who also stars in the movie alongside Jackie Chan and Biao Yuen. The plot of Wheels on Meals revolves around two cousins, Thomas (played by Jackie Chan) and David (played by Biao Yuen), who run a food truck in Barcelona, serving up traditional Chinese dishes to the locals. When they chance upon a beautiful pickpocket named Sylvia (played by Lola Forner), they find themselves embroiled in a plot involving a stolen heirloom and a group of mysterious villains.

Thomas and David team up with Moby (played by Sammo Hung), a bumbling private investigator, to unravel the conspiracy and save Sylvia from harm. Along the way, they engage in a number of frenetic and highly choreographed martial arts sequences, taking on hordes of bad guys with their fists, feet, and various improvised weapons.

One of the standout features of Wheels on Meals is its use of location filming in Barcelona, which gives the movie a unique and vibrant visual style. The filmmakers make great use of the city's landmarks and architecture, showcasing everything from Gothic cathedrals to bustling marketplaces.

In addition to its action and comedy elements, Wheels on Meals also features a number of heartwarming moments between its characters. Thomas and David's familial bond is a central theme of the movie, and their interactions with each other and with Sylvia are genuinely touching.

Another highlight of the film is its soundtrack, which features a mix of traditional Chinese music and upbeat pop tracks. The theme song, "Love and Passion", is a catchy pop ballad that perfectly captures the film's blend of action, humor, and sentimentality.

Overall, Wheels on Meals is an entertaining and highly engaging movie that showcases some of the best talent in Hong Kong cinema. Its blend of action, comedy, and heart makes it an enduring classic of the genre, and its influence can be felt in numerous subsequent films and TV shows.
