Yep so here is "Child of peach" the first in a series of three films starring female action star Lam Siu Lau, who often played a boy, as she does in these films.
So i class "Magic of Spell" as the 2nd one in the series and "Magic Warriors" as the 3rd, although i dont think you really have to worry too much about watching these in order.
I cant really explain the plots of these type they are just a lot of fun, i appreciate they are not everyones cup of tea, but they are mine, i just go with the flow watching all the over the top things going on.
It appears that the first film made by Lam Siu Lau was the very similar themed "Kung fu wonderchild" which is equally as wacky and fun as these three films. She is also in the excellent "A heroic Fight" which is a modern day film.
Now the Hong Kong Cinemagic site also has listed that she made a film called "Child of Peach 2" as well as the others i have mentioned, but i cannot confirm that this is an actual film, i think its just some confusion between her titles.
This film does have a giant peach, from which our hero appears as a baby, much like Superman, she appears to grow very quickly and with super strength.
Its madcap, wacky and fun
8ish giant peaches out of 10.
