Reviewed by: redbean Date: 12/09/1999 A solid drama with very, very few gratuitous "prison violence"scenes. I think the director/writer's name is Samson Chiu--I don't know if he's done any other movies--he has a nice sense of pacing, and it was visually a lot more interesting than it could have been (because it basically takes place in the boys' cell and in a couple of other locations in the prison). The acting is good, too--especially the guy who plays Koon (don't know his name).

Reviewed by: pablo Date: 12/09/1999 After spending one last day in HK, Lam Ming Che intentionally gets himself arrested and put in juvenille prison, in order to find his friend Chan, arrested on a previous night of adventure. In prison, he discovers and becomes part of a whole new culture and economy, where wealth is measured in candy and small freedoms mean everything. This is an interesting story that is told amazingly well (in both direction/writing and acting). Highly recommended for anyone who likes a good simple tale.
