Synopsis: Fai (Aaron Kwok) is a relatively young, inexperienced cop who accidentally arrests a bank robber. However, Fai loses him when the gang’s vicious boss (Elvis Tsui) infiltrates Police HQ to take down his own comrade! Luckily, the cops bring in two “expert” policemen, Lau (Lau Ching-Wan) and Ma (Leung Ka-Yan) to help bring down the bad guys. Helping their investigation is Min (Fennie Yuen), the club singer to whom Fai is attracted and who also happens to be the girlfriend of the head bad guy. With topnotch police work – and maybe a little luck – the cops regroup in time for a violent finish. [Source: Letterboxd]
