Summary: In this fast-moving action drama, a highly televised police bust of a Hong Kong bank heist end with the criminals getting away and a lot of cops getting killed. In an effort to save face with the public, the police arrange to broadcast the pursuit and capture of the crooks. However, things get more complicated when the bank robbers contact the media with their own version of events. (Palm Pictures)

"The story's unrefined point about media one-upmanship is crudely spaced out across the film's terse 90 minutes." - Ed Gonzalez

The 7 minute, elaborate opening crane shot is like Touch of Evil for the modern era, and there's another one at the climax (on a steadicam) to bookend the whole affair.

It's as slick and cool as you'd expect from To, but only in occasional bursts.

I enyoyed the media critic in this one. But some of the actors seemed a little bit bored.
