Halliwell's Film Guide

Unoriginal thriller that is a pale copy of modern American gangster movies, particularly those of Martin Scorsese; it features more scenes of a shirtless or naked Daniel Wu than the narrative needs.

Superb

Rusty from London, 28th April, 2005

Reminiscent of Infernal Affairs (and Eric Tsang stars in both), a cop goes undercover: he is special, as he says. Superbly scripted, it kept me on the edge of my seat.

Promising initially.....

A Customer from London, England, 27th February, 2006

Looked promising initially then downhill thereafter. Pretty thin. Simply not in the same league as Infernal Affairs I or II both of which have depth and guts - more twists and turns than a plate of spaghetti.

Mission to bordom

Angiemarie from Essex, 8th June, 2005

I thought this film would have been really exciting but no sooner had I switched on the DVD player, the film displayed subtitles and I knew I was doomed, therefore I cannot say what the actual film was like as I did not get that far. If you like subtitled films, then you will enjoy this I am sure.
