Audience Member An example of post-1997 HK Cinema's lost & confused status, further with weak writing. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a must see for any tuner car fan Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member In streets of Hong Kong, drag racing in Sha Tin seems to be just and ordinary thing for the drag racers. Andrew Lau from the co-director of Initial D and Infernal Affairs brings you car racing with more human feelings in the story. I actually enjoyed more of the father and son relationship than the car races. However the drag races are still good with good sound effects and film editing. Storywise this is just another car racing film when two professional drivers just wanted to prove who is the King of all racers. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Got back into watching HK-based foreign films. I think Fast & Furious series ripped off this HK-based movie. The imported Subaru WRX is the theme of most of the rides. The plot needs work and is sort of convoluted. Ekin from the Y&D series along with Cecilia Cheung & Kelly Lin makes up the cast here. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member watched it without subtitles. but I understood it. I liked it more then fast and furious. better story Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member yo se que no tiene tantos efectos especiales como los de rapido y furioso, pero esta es la original, así que no me importa y me encanta esta pelicula!!!
