Aaron Kwok's best movie
20 June 2009
This was the best movie I've seen starring Aaron Kwok. He shows more involvement with his part, and this is the first time I've seen him look genuinely interested in the female lead (Norika Fujiwara). Norika Fujiwara might have been big in Japan, but with so many gorgeous Hong Kong actresses, she's with tough competition.

What was surprising was how good Aaron Kwok looked in this movie. He might have found a niche that he excels in, but there aren't enough movie of this type made in Hong Kong.

The action in this movie stretches believability a bit. Like in the motor cycle chase scene, the bike literally climbs up vertically on the back of the van, then launches off its roof on an angle to land on top of a double decker bus. Not likely to happen !

The rap music used in this movie sounds very dated, and using them were a fad the year this movie was made.

I liked the cinematography, and the way they selected the background for each of the scenes.

Pretty experimental movie for HK, and not bad for a first try.
