Invisible Target (2007)
Reviewed by: leepifer on 2007-08-24
Summary: Benny Chan is not invisible...
And he wants to show that he can be a leader of this new generation who wants to take the power...Well, they don't rule yet.
Anyway, it's a good entertainment with high class action.I'm impressed by Nicky Li's work on this film.There is plenty of action and actors have paid from their bodies some pain.Nicholas Tse is perfoming some stunts here that assure the show(Watch how he wants to take the bus when he's late;-).
Tse and Yu do not have the bodies cut to make equal play with Wu Jing but their rage and determination give them finally the sufficient athletic side to fight hard.
Wu Jing is in a bad guy role and he is the orphan'gang leader involved in a van-bank robbery who turns in a betraying story.It wouldn't fit him if SPL wasn't passed by there but he seems have fun to play the bloody guy,even if he's not yet enough "heavy", as Sammo for example ;-)).Andy On is his fellow fighter but his limited role doesn't permit him to be taken serious by audience when he tells stories to Jaycee Chan.This last one has an alternative role, almost in a "my father speech morale"!He tries to be dramatic and coherent but he's not really plausible.But he's got something, a real goodwill to exist and he makes progress at each new film.

Tse got a more strong screen presence than others actors but they all manage quite well to let the story being told.
Script is not bad although it got some holes,especially in the middle film, but progression'story is quite logical to be interested by.

All in all, a good time is assured with this big production, a sort of light response to SPL and NPS from this new generation who is preparing to take the power soon...but not today.
