This film has some of the most insane action sequences you'll see all year. If you love batshit crazy action this film is for you.
The basic plot of the film has a cop kind of sort of working with wanted criminial to hunt the city's big drug lord. As the pair spar they also get closer and closer to the villain who is poisoning and kidnapping the people of the city
If you want to know how crazy the film is consider that the film opens with a sequence where the wanted criminal takes on a scientist who is making the drugs...and is also a serial killer. The scientist is protected by an army. Things get even crazier as there is a fight with a knife on a wire and sledge hammer end on a chain, another fight involves electrified tridents and land sea chase involving artillery. The action is so good it's what you will remember.
Sadly as good as the action is, the script is a convuluted mess. The script seems to exist just to move the characters to the next action sequence and then give us a preachy ending where good triumphs over evil and even anti-heroes are punished. I know that one has to bend to the Mainland authorities, but their tinkering and moving things toward the party line is resulting in mish mash films.
Messy plot aside, this is a film action lover will want to put on their must see lists
