Solid tech credits save a naive story.
4 March 1999 | by (Hong Kong) – See all my reviews

The story of several special agents dispatched to Sarajevo for an offense that they did not commit, complete with their experiences in exile and the discrimination they suffer, complemented with bad guy Ken Tsang's impotence in a situation where "Chinese fight Chinese", and "embellished" with Chinese boat people sent to the open sea in an inhuman manner... in the end all these efforts have just one message to convey: survival in adverse situations depends on joining forces. The action set pieces are masculine and eye-catching, but the love scenes are corny. The film's creators can't tell a story straight. The saving grace are the solid tech credits.
