Review
by Kozo: |
This cop actioner from director Benny Chan (The Magic Crane,
Happy Hour) delivers in spades. Maverick cop Lau Ching-Wan
clocks a superior officer after a botched sting and he ends
up being demoted to the emergency unit. He finds himself in
charge of a small team, consisting of a by-the-book Jordan
Chan Siu-Chun, Cheung Tat-Ming, the ubquitous Spencer Lam
Seung-Yi, and the cute Theresa Lee. Francis Ng plays it straight
as Lau’s old partner. Meanwhile, bad guys Yu Rong-Guang and
Anthony Wong hatch a clever scheme to lift some cash right
from under Interpol's noses.
Very fast-paced and well shot, the
film provides crackling, energetic action sequences along
with likable characters and excellent acting - all within
the framework of your typical commercial action picture. Ma
Yuk-Sing's action almost reaches cartoony proportions, but
the action and energy prove infectious. Lau Ching-Wan provides
his customary charisma, and Jordan Chan handles his stiff
character with dignity. This is a supremely entertaining motion
picture and director Benny Chan and company should be lauded
for their efforts. (Kozo 1996) |
