(Synopsis) An undercover cop Ho (played by Chin Ka Lok) is assigned to spy on the activities of money laundering but is discerned by triad. He is seriously injured when cop and gangster cross fire to each other. He is still alive finally, however, police consider him as being revolted and do not take up responsibility for paying the huge amount of medical fee. Don (played by Alex To), and other colleagues but also friends of Ho are going to rob the organization of money laundering so as to send Ho aboard for treatment on time. Chung (played by Daniel Wu), who belongs to Criminal Intelligence Bureau of the police (the so-called Hit Team), is responsible for investigating this case. How can he react between a constitutional and moralistic aspects when he finds out that Don and other colleagues do the robbery? The film is above average in terms of story, filming, and casting. Perhaps there is no superstar in the film, it is arranged to launch in the non-rush period. I reckon it becomes more and more hit by the concrete commend of audience. Daniel Wu improves a lot in terms of acting. He is no longer relying on the good look to satisfy the audience. The role of Alex To is unable to make him demonstrate his acting skill. Maybe it is fate that is same as his other sides of his career like singing. It seems he never has a chance to make him more popular. Director Dante Lam adopts a lot of session to describe the bond of friendship. It is rare in action films. Besides, it mentions the grey area of police operation which may make police complain.
