Summary: Great Homage
Review: This was a wonderful look back on the gangster era of HK cinema (end of 80's to early 90's). Plenty of references to Woo, Hark and Lam as well as their Western proteges like Besson and Rodriguez. On the level of pure actioner, it is also quite nice with some old school bravado. They ecshewed the more recent "Matrix-inspired" trappings of outrageous physics and used the basic slo-mo and bold stunts to win the day. It is a return to form and for me a hope that future HK films can get back to this standard. The only thing that marred this for me was the seemingly slapped on ending with the police chief. His subplot seemed to come out of no where and while the grande finale battle was wonderful to behold (with a Metal Slug reference, to boot) the set up was rather weak. I think it is a worthy film for any HK enthusiast.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: so so.............
Review: Tok vs O. Battle of the best killers............
Simon Yam is Inspector Lee, not so sure bout whom to track down, o or Tok.
Kelly Lin is Ms.Chin, O's housekeeper who gets charmed by Tok, Tok tells her straight up that hes a killer( kinda like point blank)

not for everyone....Andy Lau is getting old
