Good old gangster film made in the eighties when H.K. films were on a high and when Chow Yun-Fat was young and popular. It tries to copy American gangster films. Some nudity, as there is a explicit rape scene that lasts for around five minutes. | | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! |

Another triad potboiler, and a really dull one at that. You have your usual suspects--Danny Lee (in a rare stretch as a cop), O Chun Hung, David Lam, Shing Fui On, etc.--and it seems that they somehow roped in Chow Yun-Fat for what looks like half a day's work, just so they could slap his name on the poster and sell some more tickets. HK producers, they are a wiley bunch all right. Oh, and Dick Wei plays a good guy--what? Up is down? Day is night? That just doesn't work for me. I'm sorry Dick, but you will always be a bad guy to me.
So, to wrap up: uninteresting story, bland characters, and what little action there is, is pretty bad. Billy Chan must have been sleeping on the job here.
There is no real reason to watch this movie! | | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! |

Here we go with another one of those DVD covers that mislead the customer to buy it. Chow Yun Fat is in this for about 10 minutes, which qualifies for a brief cameo, not the starring role. Other than that, this film is actually surprisingly good... This is one of the most realistic gritty triad flicks that I've seen. Pretty good preformances by many other familiar Hong Kong actors in this film that boasts brutal action, excellent makeup, and a great chase scene. This one is well worth a chance once you get past the bogus cover. | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | Y | I would have gone a little lower in the rating, but you're basically correct. | Jeffrey Frawley |
