I am not a newcomer to Asian films. If anything I enjoy them a lot more than most Hollywood flicks because they still adhere to same principle which is telling the story... a believable story. We do not see your typical unlimited budget showing throughout the movie but spirit of the movie is not about that.
In not so many words as synopsis says it is a story about cops trying to do the right thing while walking ethical boundaries.
What made it confusing is somewhat jumpidy jump approach by movie directors. Unless you really pay attention it is hard to figure out what just happened. We have the bad guys... OK those are easy to recognize but then there are three groups of good guys and there is little distinction between who is who.
From what I can gather I think there were 2 swat teams one of whom quit police force and tried to help their injured friend.
I was a little disappointed in the fact that there was less swat tactics than you would expect. It was as if a bunch of guys who only went through 1 year of police academy tried to take matters into their own hands. I just did not feel the experience that should have come with well trained swat team and when there was a well trained swat team it was just a glimpse in entire movie.
All in all I am giving this film a 5 because it is probably well worth watching on a nice rainy day but this does not have the polished film like some of its other genre counterparts with similar budgets.
