As usual whatever Andy lau touches turns to gold. With this, his 100th (i think) movie, he goes all out at the main character: A washed up boxer trying to get back into the ring. Although most of the story is slow, my interest didn't waver. The exchanges between Lau and Tokiwa, the head of the orphanege he is staying out, are very entertaining. Overall it is a good story, and Andy Lau sells it. Although the predictable nature of it left me knowning what would happen in almost every scene. The story itself has been beaten to death, and although there is great acting, i wouldn't rate it above many others due to it's predictable nature and few yet far between slow moments.

6/10.
