Mongkok, one of the most densely populated areas in the world, is the hotbed of illicit business. Lai Fu (Daneil Wu), a farm boy from Mainland China, is hired as a killer and is forced to enter into the coincidence of gangs of Mongkok.

  • Hard on the heels of the 'Infernal Affairs' movies, here's another Hong Kong crime thriller that leaves most recent American efforts standing.

  • Dark, direct and downright dangerous, this is the perfect antidote for anyone who has overdosed on Jackie Chan films.

    One night is enough thanks.

    As a fan of Orient movies for over a decade now,I can say that this film although not anywhere near the classic that many are calling it,is quite entertaining and completely original. Daniel Wu plays the most detestable character ever to appear on the screen, while Eric Tsang plays the noble and wise Triad mob boss,which makes the ending one of the most satisfying twists in Hong Kong movie history.I don't understand why some reviewers found it confusing,It's pretty simple and the subtitiles are crsip and clear to read an unlike a lot of the HK movies they stay on the screen long enough for you to read.I would suggest you see this movie as although slow and not as entertaining as many of the Cop/Triad movies out at the moment,It is still a unique insight into the mind of an individual and his inability to cope with fortune.
