This movie is really just a bit of fluff but it's worth checking out if you are a hardcore Stepehen Chow fan as it was his first major role in a Hong Kong motion picture, and he does a pretty good job. He also was presented with a Taiwan Golden Horse award for his acting in this supporting role.
The plot circles around a rogue cop (Played by Danny Lee, surprised?)who is trying to bust four gangsters who are causing trouble in Hong Kong. The film features the cast of John Woo's hit film "The Killer" minus Chow Yun Fat. The action is lite and fairly minimal but the Characters are fun and make the film at least moderately enjoyable. If your bored and want to watch a decent HK cop movie, or a hardcore Stephen Chow or Danny Lee fan then give this film a try.

This movie is sometimes referred to as Ong Bak 2, which it is not, as the two movies are entirely unrelated aside from Muay Thai (Kickboxing) being part of the main premise.
This film although being evidently low in budget, is quite long but manages to entertain. This is especially true if your are into Thai culture and history or even Martial arts in general. There is plenty of action to be found here featuring lots of sword and Muay Thai fights. But if your expecting the high octane, fast paced action of Ong Bak you will be disappointed as this movie takes a much more practical approach to it's fight sequences. I found the story a little hard to fallow at times but that could just be a result of poor subtitles, overall the story was enough to keep me watching.
This movie turned out to be an interesting experience and I am glad to have it in my collection.
