Seven years ago, he went undercover and became the undercover protege to Hung Kai-pang (Jiang Wu), a wanted criminal specializing in bombs. During a cash vault robbery, Cheung revealed his undercover identity and whilst coordinating with the police, successfully disposed a bomb, preventing from being detonated. In the event, Hung’s criminal gang, in the car where Cheung was in, was captured including Hung’s younger brother. However, during the explosive commotions, Hung managed to escape and threatened to return for revenge. (CMC Pictures Holdings)

English This is a different action film than you might expect from Hong Kong. It's more modern, less B-movie-like, and that is quite fitting for it. This is mostly because Andy Lau is an amazing star, and he's professional in the way he handles the scenes where you really have to act, not just fight. This is a well-handled film that I enjoyed. ()
