From its brutal prison fight opening to its twist-laden finale, this grisly thriller details the mystery surrounding the murder of popular opera singer Han. Clamoring to find the killer is inspector George Lam (the formidable Simon Yam), who alights on recently released convict Eugene Wong (Nick Cheung) as his prime suspect. As Lam delves further into the crime, uncovering details from the past that tie Eugene and his crime to Han’s family, the case increases in complexity and potential danger. With a memorable fight sequence set aboard a cable car and the clever teaming of Cheung and Yam on opposite sides of the law, this is a perfect example of the wonderfully complex, action film for which Hong Kong cinema is known.
