Hong Kong War

UNDECLARED WAR is a really nice action thriller from Ringo Lam and I have to say I'm surprised that I'd never heard of it before watching. Why? It's easily of the same quality as anything Hollywood was making during this era. The film stars Danny Lee and Tommy Wong as a couple of Special Branch cops who get involved in a plot when international terrorists arrive in Hong Kong. Their Western counterparts are negligible, but it's great to see Vernon Wells and Olivia Hussey (!) as the villains. The real star is the choreography, with a wealth of high profile shoot-outs, fights and stunts. Poor old Lee and his cohorts really get put through the winger in this one, believe me!
