Would you believe an HK remake of El Mariachi? Lam Ling Fai (Leon Lai) is stranded in a back roads Mexican town with a few pesos and a guitar case at the same time a Chinese hit-man is also in town -- but his guitar case is full of automatic weapons. The bullets are aimed for evil "Carlos," who's in unrequited love with Ho Ying (Veronica Yip), the saloon keeper. Solid action sequences and a romantic subplot keep the movie moving.

(2/4)
