It's a basic police procedural. A drug dealer gets busted and agrees to cooperate with the police, but his allegiances remain unclear until the final third of the film. You can guess where this one's going. The last 15 minutes are full of over the top John Woo-style gun violence, but it's nothing worth sitting through the rest of the movie to see, especially since the film gives you absolutely no reason to care whether any of the characters live or die. Don't bother with this garbage.… Expand

undermines the credibility of the metacritic score. no story, no action, no characters, no effects, a major disappointment all around. skip this movie. a glimpse into crime in china, perhaps.
