This film is interesting for two reasons-one, it tries to combine the then up-and-comers with veteran actors. Secondly, the reason why it was made was to discourage people from joining the Triad, and judging by the box office takings, I don't think they were particularly sucessful.

Anyways, a short summary of the film-a triad boss, released from jail after 25 years, attempts to follow the straight and narrow. He fails, however, as his past catches up with him. Someone (his daughter? I can't remember) gets kidnapped by the local gangster, and it's up to him and his old friends to rescue her.

There's some pretty funny scenes in this, especially when dealing with the generation gap between the old ex-gangsters and the newer, gun-carrying gangsters. Probably the funniest is when Ng Man-Tat, puffed out after jumping over a fence, can't be bothered and rolls down to the base of a hill. However, there's a lot of sentimentality in this, and the story isn't really engaging. It's an honest effort, but nothing to get excited about.
