Senior Inspector Don Lee relies heavily on the information provided by stool pigeons in his job. Barbarian is a painstakingly meticulous armed robber. Don needs an informant to infiltrate his gang and recruits street-racer Guy, Guy delivers, but Don is unable to effectively act on the information until the final moment.

Since Barbarian has not left any evidence, Don is pressured to convince Guy to become a witness for the prosecution and promises him a new identity in another county. Guy barely escapes with his life. A disillusioned Don is left wondering if his quest for justice is worth the price that often has to be paid. Best actor Nick Cheung, Nicholas Tse and director Dante Lam renew the successful collaboration that brought audiences the multiple award-winner The Beast Stalker.

Rare to see Nicolas in a serious role. Good story but poor ending.

The action scenes are very well-staged with both lead actors turning in credible and commendable roles. It’s rare to see a HK actor cry in a movie and feel like it is genuine. A good, solid film that will entertain you.

Excellent performance by Nicholas & Nick, intriguing plot- in the end, the good always prevail but at what cost. This is about the cost... the pace is not very intense, and imho there could had been a better ending. 3.5/5
