This movie was surprisingly entertaining. I managed to avoid the film initially because I was so tired of this industry thing of making action stars out of folks who can sing and sell records. That's just me being a hater on all these pretty guys. As for this movie, Lam Tze-Chung is cast as the funny sidekick and this is an actor I really enjoy watching do work. The director Ken Yip Wing-Kin is doing nice work handling the interesting screenplay that uses tried and true formulaic genre sequences with a fresh approach.

There is also the performance of, and the action direction by, Fan Siu-Wong. He has learned his craft quite well and this Kung Fu Fighter [2007] would be worth your time. Fan and Chan Sek have put together a fine action direction team. They make this young pop star look good while surrounding him with many old school action comedy performers.
