It's a shame that a movie featuring Chow Yun Fat fighting a tank is that boring and aimless.

It's a far more cogent, well-written narrative than the first two films, but doesn't have that same thrilling action. The main problem is that the central love story doesn't make sense; why does Chow fall for Cheung, anyways? There is no chemistry between them either, thanks to Pop Princess Anita Mui's inability to act. It's a fun film, but the entertainment is nowhere close to its predecessors, and the story is "movie decent", nothing more.
