Captain Manfred (Leon Lai) must solve a brutal murder to prove his partner’s innocence and expose the truth behind Hong Kong’s police force. The investigation brings him to an unlikely collaboration with sly, man-of-the-world Inspector Kee (Richie Ren) from the Narcotics Bureau, whose motives are not what they seem. Dante Lam, one of Hong Kong’s top action directors, spices up this thriller plot with spectacular action sequences, including an audacious final shootout that will astound even the most experienced Hong Kong movie connoisseur. Description adapted from Indomina Releasing. (dir.: Dante Lam, 2010, 106 min., Cantonese with English subtitles)
