Eager to support his girlfriend, naive and penniless Olympic champion Kong Ko (Wu) agrees to try his hand on the illegal underground fighting circuit. Thinking he can earn a fast buck and then leave, Ko begins to be drawn further and further into the game, becoming ever more skilled and lethal. But when he's told to throw a fight or risk his girlfriend's life, Ko decides it's time to teach his paymasters a lesson they'll never forget. (Trinity Filmed Entertainment)

A perfect film about illegal fighting. Nothing new under the sun, but it moves quickly, the fights happen at intervals of every ten minutes and the opponents escalate, which works for me, it keeps you waiting to see who will come next. Jacky Wu is an incredible unbeatable machine, lean, small, but that speed and cadence make him quite possibly the biggest star next to Donnie Yen. Most of all, he's a good, fair guy with whom the viewer has a lot of sympathy. Five stars for the shocking ending, which is one of the most shocking endings in action movies in the last two decades. 85% ()
