Back in 1988, before The Killer was released, I carried a VHS copy I made from a LD and showed Gunmen to people as an example of the incredible production values that Film Workshop was capable of putting together. Of course, director Kirk Wong Chi-Keung purchased his ticket to Hollywood based on the success of this movie and the rest, as they say, is infamy. Don't miss this one now that it is out on DVD. It is well worth the time to see this movie to appreciate the sumptuous textures that are layered throughout.
