What can I say about this odd film? An impressive cast that includes Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Tony Leung, Andy Lau and Jimmy Wang Yu are wasted in a film that does not know what to do with itself. It is a prison drama, a bit of a farce, a gangster flick, and also a film about corruption and political murder. (Wow!) Admittedly, Jackie's fight sequences stand out, but he is not in the film enough to have is name at the top of the cast. It is one of those worth a watch if you are looking for something different, but if you have certain pre-conceptions on certain actors you will be surprised.
Sammo Hung is criminally wasted.
