Critic Reviews

  • Keith H. Brown, iofilm.co.uk

    It's pleasing to see that Hong Kong Legends has not skimped on its presentation of the film on this Region 2 DVD.

  • Keith H. Brown, Eye for Film

    Conceived of as an obvious cash in on the "heroic bloodshed" genre... this gangster drama ...lacks the special something needed to elevate it out of the pack.

    Great non-stop action with two peformances Chow Yun-Fat and Alan Tong combine with Joe Cheung's skillful direction to deliver a powerful but tragic gangland thriller with the brutal realism of <i>Scarface</i>.
