Small-time gangster Wong Ah-kau (Ching-Wan Lau) gets two job offers that could change his life. First, an associate asks him to transport some cars to mainland China. It's easy work, for a lot of money, that could be his ticket to the big time. A more risky opportunity comes Ah-kau's way soon after, when he's asked to do a contract killing in Taiwan. It's a difficult choice, but this quirky crime flick has it both ways, as it shows the violent results of either path.

03/31/2012 An old movie, but still worth to watch today. See more 08/13/2010 A fun, crazy variation on the triads films. See more 01/10/2010 Bello! Molto originali sia la sceneggiatura che le scelte visive, raffinato l'umorismo nero della prima parte, indovinata la resa drammatica della seconda metà. Peccato per la qualità del supporto e dei sottotitoli, altrimenti forse me lo sarei goduto anche di più :( See more Read all reviews
