The Prince of Temple Street (1992)
Reviewed by: ksbutterbox on 2002-04-20
Summary: Pretty good.
Andy Lau plays a triad boss while Joey Wang is a member of a christian "good news society" trying to convert the people of Temple Street. Drama that slowly builds into more frenzied violence as Lau's character"Little Twelve" is hunted down by a foe who just got out of prison, & wants revenge and the turf. Lots of nice shots of HK markets and stalls as well as brothels and opium dens. Ng Man Tat and Deannie Yip's performances are also quite good. Similiar to the Young and Dangerous films that followed a few years later. Check this one out..it gets better if you're patient.
