Landon J @Minxsykitty Jul 28 Gives sixteen candles crossed with Chungking express. Great performances from the whole cast. I love a sad ending too! Really interesting way they were able to make this feel very personal while being a fun watch at the same time. See more Leprechaun K @LeprechaunKing 02/27/2025 Good romance/gangster drama from HK. Andy Lau at this peak in the 90s. See more Luca D @JoeCamel7 12/20/2023 A good action movie. Not as good as As Tears Go By but the different directors have different styles. This could be a good icebreaker into Chinese action movies if someone is trying to get started. See more Sugar @Jamit 08/28/2023 90s Hong Kong movies are the best. Benny Chan's first Directing Debut and Andy Lau is the best.

Sur une histoire d'amour entre un voyou biker de bas étage joué par un Andy Lau magnétique et une jeune fille de bonne famille jouée par Jaclyn Wu, Benny Chan livre un film formellement magnifique. En dehors de filmer Hong Kong sous ses meilleurs atours, Chan livre surtout un film d'action remarquable, une romance touchante, avec toute la saveur du cinéma HK des 90s. C'est sirupeux, violent, désespérant, drôle, le tout en ne dépassant pas les 90 minutes. Mais si le film appartient à quelqu'un, c'est à Andy Lau, formidable jeune premier, aussi effrayant qu'adorable, aussi vulnérable que dangereux, il hante le film de sa présence et en fait un classique quasi incontournable.
