In the early '20s, lovable smart-ass Shin Shi Hung whisks offto Shanghai to escape the triads. He transplants his loyalties to a cagey casino operator, who's waiting for a chance to take over the local organized crime biz once the as the Axel and Gold Sand Gangs destroy themselves. The corrupt police chief has his own plans. Three stunning actresses I've never seen before keep the audience awake, and snappy action sequences come fast and hard. The set decorator must have been on vacation when things made of plastic appear in the film.

(3/4)
