Rosa (Chinese: 神勇雙響炮續集) is a 1986 Hong Kong action comedy film directed by Joe Cheung and starring Yuen Biao, Lowell Lo, Luk Siu-fan, Kara Hui and Paul Chun. The film's Chinese title literally means "Supernaturally brave artillery sequel", which is also the Chinese title of the 1984 film, "Pom Pom". Despite this, "Rosa" is not a sequel to "Pom Pom" like its Chinese title suggests. Plot.
