Overview
Something fishy is going on in the anti-Drug Trafficking Unit of the HK Police, and only a few honest cops know that the corruption goes all the way to the top. However, they must prove their case quickly, and by unconventional means, after they are framed for murder and drug-trafficking themselves. Dodging bullets from cops and criminals alike, the race is on to clear their names, protect their loved ones, and bring their corrupt colleagues to justice.

Viewing Notes
Still as gonzo as ever. So many stunt people must have been injured during production (as remarked in my previous notes). Also amusing to see my notes and ratings change over time. Even having seen it these sequences already they don’t lose their impact or potency. Just insane filmmaking by one of the greats.
So happy I own this on Blu-ray now!
