Or the new film produced by Johnnie To and shot from his trusty screenwriter Yau Nai-hoi. The trailer stronger in form and content, Yau crime story proves to have superb professional skill and should have happened is that festival in the channels of commerce, particularly those specializing in the genre. Hollywood, always looking for potential talents to refresh its line, should take note. Just as
PTU, a film written by Yau TO, the focus is still an elite police unit known as the Supervisory Board. His officers are dressed in civilian clothes, pass difficult test and use the latest gadgets. Under no circumstances should they disclose their identity. All you have to do is to find suspects and observe and make special SWAT teams to intervene when they arrest someone. Dog Head (Yam), one of the most experienced staff in the Unit of Security, is instructing a recruit who has nicknamed Piggy (Tsui), when called upon in aid to pursue a violent gang controlled by the mind and ruthless dell'insensibile Shau (Tony Leung Ka-Fai).
The ambushes and pursuits come together in a series of perfectly orchestrated sequences that go beyond the expected, but the script constantly create new obstacles. But these defects are unimportant. In the hands of other filmmakers, this collection could become a delirious parable about the lack of privacy and the threat of state police. Not here, where Yau Nai-hoi builds a story where good and evil are defined by gender, not theological treatises. Experts are good actors. Yam is fairly disorganized and shows a belly that might surprise his admirers, Tony Leung Ka-Fai is violent in an adequate and Kate Tsui has the right mix of innocence and mischief.
An excellent work of recovery with the use of saturated tones so often favored by movie and quick assembly To make their contribution to a year of great fun.
