02/23/2014 Funny bad mid-90's romp where Andy Lau tries to avenge his family. Good direction, terrible effects. Kwan and Lau have good chemistry. Too long and sentimental. See more 10/16/2009 A solid and big-scale Hong Kong action from Ringo Lam. The title totally does not fit to the content, though. Among the three top Hong Kong action directors of that time, Hark Tsui, John Woo, and Lam, Lam probably has the least originality in style, but I like the theme that Lam always deals with - the chain of vengeance. This film is the best of his in terms of clarity of that theme. Casts are all good, but especially the two actresses, Rosamund Kwan, who probably plays the first and only bitch-role, and Chien-lien Wu, who perfectly sustains the difficult role, are great. These big films which the "big-three" made (they tend to set in Sounth-east Asia, interestingly) in 90s are as big in scale and entertaining as contemporary Hollywood films. See more 06/30/2008 Good Andy Lau adventure. See more 08/29/2007 Not bad... she was so hot! Love Rosamund Kwan... See more 03/07/2007 Boring and exaggerated movie. See more 01/08/2007 Andy Lau makes the dazzling action sequences by protecting her hostage / lover from the gangsters. See more Read all reviews
