Synopsis by Jonathan Crow
Max Mok Siu-chung and Roy Cheung Yiu-yeung star in this low-budget, critically panned crime thriller as Chen Chun and San (respectively), two low-level mainland gangsters who open their own gambling outfit. When Chen Chun winds up killing the owner of a rival parlor, he flees to Hong Kong where he soon falls in with a heroin-addicted hooker named Fang (Lee Suet-man). They inevitably fall in love but soon their bliss is shattered with the news that Chen's gambling venture has been taken over by a notorious gangster called Bolo Guy (Lung Fong), and his mainland girlfriend Meila (Jacqueline Ng Suet-man) has been killed. Before you can say "bloody violent revenge," Chen has hopped over the border looking to set things right.
