Well, I was excited to see Nicholas Tse, Jacky Cheung and Karena Ka-Yan Lam in one movie together. And they didn't disappoint! All in great shape like they deny the aging.

The story is OK, nothing to rave about. The action is great. Shootings, fist fights, many explosions. By the way, Nicholas Tse is an action director in this movie. And I think he did a good job.

I don't know why we don't see any decent movies with Nicholas Tse recently. He still can shine as an action movie star. In this movie he is cool but very vulnerable and sad. It's like he was sad about his own career. But OK, I got it, it's just a character in this movie.

My problem with this movie is that it's too serious and too much drama is going on. In the end I finally felt something, so the film had impact on me. But I was expecting something a bit more positive. That's why it's 7 of 10 for me.

If you don't have the same expectations as me and ready for an action packed drama with your favorite actors, then I can recommend this movie for you. Otherwise, skip it. It's not a masterpiece by any means.
