Francis Li: Hey, wake up! Wake up! Hey, wake up, and put on your clothes! My wife's home! Hey!
Dummy's Wife: You have a wife?
Francis Li: Whatever. Put on your clothes! I'll explain it to you another day.
Dummy's Wife: What do you mean "Put on my clothes?" This is my home!
Francis Li: Your home? Then, who's the person trying to get in?
Dummy's Wife: Oh! My husband's back!
Francis Li: Your husband? Why didn't you tell me earlier?
Dummy's Wife: I told you! You just pretended not to understand.
Francis Li: I'm deaf! When I hit on you, you should've said something!

Tiger On The beat has a standard storyline about 2 policemen, who are partners. It is a fact that foreigners in American films play villains and other bad guys. It is just the same in Tiger On The Beat, and all Americans in this Asian film are villains. Hongkong-movies are known for their high-quality-action-scenes, and Tiger On The Beat doesn`t disappoint. Some of the actors deliver a stiff performance though. 8/10
