I do agree with the many below me that this is one of the better movies of 2004. The story is limited but its the character focus is what makes the movie good.

Daniel Wu gives a better than expected performance!! Alex Fong looks like a walking zombie. Cecila Cheung breezes through her role Chin Kar Lok's character was actually what i was most impressed about.Sam Lee as a triad does work, hes just too skinny to scary anyone!!

Not much action until the bloody end,though i didnt find this a great movie i did find it quite enjoyable!!

7/10
