Prolific filmmaker Herman Yau is no stranger to Hong Kong cinema who has directed bold films that touched on sensitive themes since the 1990s. Films like the Category III rated “The Untold Story” and “Ebola Syndrome” are famously explicit in violence, sex and gore. Most of all, he tells the real stories of Hong Kong through his raw and complex characters. Nonetheless, Yau would move on to direct big budget action films mostly financed by China like “Shock Wave” (2017), “The White Storm” series and “Moscow Mission” (2023) during the last decade. Filmed in different locations, “Customs Frontline” is such a film.

A young hotshot but principled Chow Ching Lai (Nicholas Tse) works for the Hong Kong Customs Department as an assistant superintendent. Fortunately, he has a sympathetic boss Cheung Wan Nam (Jacky Cheung), a senior superintendent there who gives him guidance throughout his career. One day while on a routine patrol,...

Hong Kong’s Customs Department plays a vital role in maintaining security and order along the bustling waterways connecting the city to the rest of the world. Their officers work tirelessly each day, stopping ships, scrutinizing cargo, and keeping a watchful eye for any criminal activity. When one of their routine checks uncovers an illegal arms shipment bound for an escalating war in Africa, it sets two officers on a thrilling mission.

Nicholas Tse stars as Chow, a devoted officer trying to balance his duties with personal struggles. His mentor is the experienced but troubled Cheung, played compellingly by Jackie Cheung.

Under Cheung’s guidance, Chow works to untangle a smuggling ring led by the mysterious Dr. Raw. But this is no ordinary case—the investigation will test the officers’ skills and resolve, plunging them into dangerous undercover operations abroad and uncovering sinister forces much closer to home.

Directing the high-octane action is Herman Yau,...

Veteran Hong Kong director Herman Yau has assembled a top-notch cast for “War Customised,” a high-octane action thriller that is one of the highest-profile commercial productions to emerge from the territory in the past couple of years.

The cast is headed by Jacky Cheung and Nicholas Tse, along with Karena Lam and Francis Ng.

The supporting cast includes Liu Yase (“Limbo”), Michelle Wai, Angus Yeung (“Raging Fire”), Melvin Wong (“Above the Law”), Ben Yuen, Amanda Strang (“Final Romance”), and Brahim Chab as the villain of the piece.

Production, now underway, is by Emperor Motion Pictures, with principal Albert Yeung named as producer. Emperor is also handling international rights licensing.

The “War Customised” screenplay is by Erica Li. Plot details have been withheld.

In addition to playing the lead, Tse will also act as the film’s action choreographer.

Yau is a veteran of the action, martial arts and comedy genres...

Apes speak the English language, we all know that. Well, at least they always have in the "Planet of the Apes" franchise. However, in the "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" film that took the box office by storm earlier this year, the film was largely shot without any dialogue so it begs the questions, will the apes evolve enough by the second film to start full fledge talking to one another? During a recent podcast, writers Rick Jaffa and Amanda S…...
