YesAsia Editorial Description
John Woo usually limits his onscreen appearances to cameos and bit parts, but he plays a major supporting role as a Rebel from China in this grim 1990 action drama directed by Raymond Lee (Dragon Inn) and based on a story by Ringo Lam (City on Fire). Woo costars with up-and-coming exploitation movie leading man Vincent Wan Yeung Ming (Black Cat in Jail) as a pair of People's Liberation Army deserters who come to the aid of triad-troubled young woman (Cecilia Yip, Swordsman). Although Woo didn't get involved behind the camera on this one, his role is very much in the spirit of his trademark "heroic bloodshed" brand of filmmaking. Admirers of his directorial work, as well as fans of Ringo Lam's gritty storytelling and the ever-radiant Cecilia Yip, will all find something to their liking here.
Chen Ming (Wan) is a once-loyal member of the PLA who becomes disillusioned with the Chinese authority after his father is pressured into committing suicide. Along with his brother Kwong (Woo), Ming flees to Hong Kong, where the siblings try to build a new life without attracting too much attention. The Chens find a friend in their new neighbor Mei Ling (Yip), a struggling young woman who's gotten into trouble with the triads. The brothers decide to make a stand against Mei Ling's tormentors, a dangerous move that may cost them their freedom - or worse.
