Summary: aiight movie
Ok when I first watched this movie, I thought it was gonna be cool but all we got was cheap effects and a aiight ending.

The story (I guess) Is about how a Undercover (Julian Cheng) works with a baddie called Dan Peterson (Micheal Wong) and goes on a journey with him to get some missle's

I really think this movie was ok, it had somewhat of a dull plot and was abit confusing, the action was pretty good but I have seen better. I do like Micheal Wong, but he was the villian, I was supposed to hate the guy, not root for him (Especially near the end when he kisses Julian and says "Relax! I like women, Guish Guish!" while pretending to a...ummm (do it up tha @#$) Funny but this was a action movie thou, not some cheap Comedy action movie.

As I said I was rooting for Micheal Wong in this film, he was a cool bad guy but I wanted to hate him. But he was sorta a goodie goodie to me(He should talk to Shing from ABT about being a true baddie) All he talked was english but it was good for me, reading those subb stuff tires me out, lol. Anyways Julian Cheng was very good aswell, he did a good job but this is one of his only films I have seen him in. If I ever go to a HK Video Store I will try and get some of his stuff. Gigi Lai was aiight aswell as the Girlfriend who like does drugs(One weird part was when Leung Ka-Ho and Gigi *Forgot her character name* hated each other, Leung saves her from some druggy and then bang! They do it. It looked like crap when they shot it aswell, lol. and as for the rest of the cast, pretty aight job.

Now the plot, well I didn't get it abit and all I know is that it involves missles and stuff and some explosions(Suits me fine) but it was bad in this film, odd thing was that I liked the beginning then the end. The ending was good but it did suck. Only one missle went off and I was expecting a huge explosion and all we got was a *Puff*...ugg....

well in all, this was a aight film, good acting and characters, plot was confusing but ok. Plus the action was bad except for the beginning and ending was abit cheap. I really did like the music aswell especially when they were at the border to Russia. Oh yeah I was rooting for the baddie aswell, that's a no no in this film I really like to hate villains but I didn't in this film...

2.6/5
