Beyond Hypothermia All Content Used With Permission. ![]()
![]() The very first film to come from Johnnie To's Milkyway Image production company, the film is a relatively standard story of a female assassin from Cambodia (Wu Chien-Lien) who meets a noodle vendor (Lau Ching-Wan) in Hong Kong. Amidst the action, the two subtley fall in love, and Wu Chien-Lien's character hopes to change her life and live peacefully with Lau Ching-Wan. However, the bodyguard of a mob boss she assassinated in Korea is out for revenge, and he tracks her down in Hong Kong, where the film culminates in a Glock-bursting finale! Overall, the film is quite a bit better than your standard female assassin film, and with some great action. It is definitely a good film to kick off Milkyway Image, however it's not as good as it gets later on from Milkyway! Produced by Johnnie To, and directed by Patrick Leung.
