Flash Point
They made it personal... He'll make them pay.
Directed by Wilson Yip
Produced by Mandarin Films, China Film Co-Production
A hard-edged Hong Kong action thriller built on martial arts spectacle and a cop's personal vendetta against ruthless criminals, with high-octane violence and minimal sentimentality.
Detective Sergeant Ma Jun, known for dispensing his own brand of justice during arrests, teams up with an undercover cop, Wilson, to try and bring down three merciless Vietnamese brothers running a smuggling ring in the months before mainland China's takeover of Hong Kong. Jun pursues the gang tirelessly, sometimes ignoring police protocols. A showdown is inevitable!
