Very well executed

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

This movie was so good :) i loved the parachute scene i cant think of anything bad about it :D they had everything in it, action and comedy. Everyone deserves to watch this. I also like the ending where the leisure center blows up and the gen X cops are on speedboats its probably one of the best films I've seen.It also had some amazing kung fu and fast paced action what was really good. I hope this movie gets more attention and a higher star rating because the acting and stunts and kung fu where the best. Acting 10/10 Humor 7/10 Kung fu 10/10overall 9.3/10I loved the idea of getting skydivers in this film because they make it more tense and add a lot of good feeling to it.Mike D.

I cannot believe somebody liked this movie. I bought it on DVD (very cheap, since it was part of a Hong Kong Legends commercial pack) and I never watched it till the end. This movie sucks.I gave it a 1 since 0 is not possible.avoid at all cost.

I've seen Nicholas Tse recently in Tsui Hark's "Time and Tide" and was very impressed with his performance. He's one of the few Hong Kong pop actors that are making a fine transition into acting than compared to some others (IE. the horrible Ekin Cheng). I saw this movie a few days ago and I have mix reactions to this movie. This movie had a mixture of English, Japanese, and Cantonese. Oh this review is on both the dubbed and subtitled versions. First, I'll go with the flaws. The story was too Hollywood for me. How many movies have we seen a group of criminals steal a nuclear bomb and it's up to the heroes to save the city from mass destruction? Way too many times. The dialogue was just so cliche. For example after a criminal betrays his own boss for money "It's about money right? It's part of the game, you know that!" Some of the actors are just really bad like Sam Lee's character Alien, you swear you'll start to think this man has soon too many Jim Carrey movies. Also there was too many episodic character developments like it jumped from a brother and brother, to a cop and a criminal with morals, a son of a criminal who wants revenge on another criminal...and so on. Still with me?Now for the bright spots of the movie. The action sequences are just kinetic! Fast cuts, people diving and shooting at the same time, stand offs, Kung Fu scenes, and anything you can think of for a Hong Kong action movie. The women in the movie are some good eye candy, if you know what I'm saying. Nicholas Tse does a good job, not as good as he did in Time and Tide, but since this is his earlier work, you see his potential. The actor who played Akatora was impressive even sometimes his thick Japanese accent would make you miss some of his English words. In the musical note, there was this great Hong Kong punk song at the end of the credits that was pretty catchy.So even with mix reactions, do I recommend this movie? Well it depends. If you're looking for a good popcorn movie this would be it. If you're looking for a smart action movie that reminds you of a John Woo movie? This wouldn't be it. So whatever you choose, just look for the amazing shootouts and a promising actor name Nicholas Tse.

This movie is like lethal weapon, police academy, with a bit of extreme sports with the Gen-X attitude. This movie is great for anyone in the Gen-X age group. There are guns, fights, skydiving, dance clubs, a bit of romance, and a little comedy.Some of the cinematography was gorgeous. The fight scenes, although not up to Jackie Chan's usual, were entertaining. There is a storyline to this one, and alot of hard hitting action sequences. This is all around entertaining. I would love to see another installment of this movie.Synopsis: Three misfit ex-police cadets are chosen by another misfit to work undercover to infiltrate an arms ring. They are the cream of Generation X, with bad attitudes, rebellious, fashionable, and not quite orthodox. They take matters into their own hands to get the job done. The only problem is that the police think they're criminals, and their leader is a bit touched!
