Movie 4 - City on Fire
Todays' movie is Ringo Lam's City on Fire from 1987 starring Chow Yun-Fat. I have to be honest and say this is not my kind of movie. It's pretty standard cop flick fare with too many clichés to list. Chow Yun-Fat is charming as always as he goes back and forth in his undercover work and trying to keep up a real life, but the rest of the film falls flat. There were some good chase scenes though.
If you really love HK action and undercover cop films than you will be into this, but it didn't keep my interest. I don't recommend this one.
If you want some great Hong Kong crime action starring Chow Yun-Fat, I suggest you watch A Better Tomorrow, Hard Boiled or The Killer instead!
