Andrew Lau Wai-keung, who would later be known for his popular Young and Dangerous series, delivers this moody gangland drama. Lik (Jacky Cheung Hok-yau) is an undercover cop, who -- after his police supervisor kills his gangland boss, Coffin Sing -- is thrown into a serious existential funk. He starts to drink like a fish, prompting his girlfriend to dump him. The murder leaves the leadership of the gang up in the air and a gang war starts between Hung Tai (Roy Cheung Yiu-yeung) and "Father" Man. Lik evidentially sides with Hung while another undercover cop named Bong (Chan Kwok-bong) watches Man. When Bong gets discovered and killed, the police raid the gangland HQ, leading to all sorts of bloodshed.
