Chow Yun-Fat stars as Hong Kong cop Inspector Lau, who meets Cher (Cherie Chung) in a homicide case, which involves an arms deal gone wrong. It's a good mixture of action and drama, as Lau falls for Cher while he protects and questions her connection to the case; Cher is the sister of arms dealer Elaine Lee (Elaine Jin), killed during the gunfire, and Elaine's daughter is left in Cher's and her father's care. However, the daughter is repulsed by her grandfather because of Elaine's criminal involvement.
This movie is nothing short of wild car chases, gun battles, and fights, and the plot is fast paced from start to finish. Mixed in with all the good guys vs. Bad guys suspense is the touching drama between the grandfather and the little girl, with Cher acting as the mediator and bridge between the family relationships.
There's great chemistry between Chow Yun-Fat and Cherie Chung, who have starred together in a large number of movies. This one is another fine piece of Hong Kong entertainment that is a treat to watch.
Grade A.
