City Hero (DVD) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region All

Michael Wong rose to fame in the early 90s with a series of films about the SDU (Special Duties Unit), the Hong Kong police equivalent to the SWAT team. His iconic performance as Stone Wong in Gordon Chan's 1994 action drama The Final Option basically set the standard for all SDU films to come. What many people may not know though is that Wong was already swinging guns and sporting paramilitary gear with the best of the best back in 1985. Helmed by New Wave director Dennis Yu (The Imp), City Hero is a classic entry in the genre and the first SDU film to portray training and operation duties from different perspectives.

City Hero revolves around five police officers who are discontent with their jobs and after many attempts, finally get accepted into the SDU. In contract to his later personae, Wong portrays a young upstart, while Dean Shek takes on the patented role of the demanding instructor. Mark Cheng (Election 2), Anthony Tang Ho Kwong (A Certain Romance), Bennett Pang of Wynners, and character actor Billy Lau co-star as the other four SDU recruits going through grueling boot camp training together under their iron-fisted instructor. Their skills are put to the test when they are called up one night for a dangerous emergency mission.
