This is probably the only movie where Jackie plays the bad guy. He's the right hand man of a crime boss in this movie.
The movie follows the old school format of movies of that era. Charlie Chin was enormously popular back in those days, and he was the lead in every movie he starred in. Young Jackie had to take back seat to him on this one. Charlie Chin's type of mellow movie would be usurped by kung fu action movies shortly, because the year this movie was made, "Enter the Dragon" by Bruce Lee would hit the theaters, and cause a kung fu action movie craze that is still on going today.
The story is about heroin trafficking in Hong Kong, and Jackie is one of the gangs. The movie gets to a very predictable ending, and production wise, nothing to speak of. But this type of movie was considered entertaining with a double feature at the theaters back then. In almost every other movie, you'd see Charlie Chin playing the star.
See the movie for the nostalgia.
