07/12/2014 Overall average when the line is difficult to distinguish. See more 07/06/2013 Boring crime drama about the hardships that undercover cops face. See more 08/26/2012 good stylish crime drama See more 12/21/2010 deconstructs harry-boy's re-integration back into the poli- ce force. narration alternating between present and flas- hbacks etc. was seamless. nick cheung, wong and ng are in top form. so effective you sympathize for the bad guys. See more 06/10/2010 The movie is between the memory of Nick when he was an undercover in the gang and after he caught the head of the gang. The conflict is well said. Everything is quite memorable. See more 03/24/2010 A rather low key crime drama, but effectively done. Co-stars HK heavyweights Anthony Wong and Francis Ng, The central problem is the lead actor, Nick Cheung, does not have the gravitas to propel this film to a higher level; its adequate but under the direction of a Johnny To, this movie could/would have been better. It is an interesting take on the triad mole returning back to normal life, and whereas Infernal Affairs merely touched on this theme, it is expolored with more depth in this film...for that alone its worth a watch!
