    • Trivia
      The movie was released directly to videocassette on November 9, 1994. Hong Kong 97 was also released on laserdisc.
    • Goofs
      A caption at the end of the movie gives the wrong date. "7:34 A.M. JULY 30, 1997 Hong Kong is again the possession of the People's Republic of China. It was business as usual..." This should read "JULY 1". A caption at the beginning of the movie correctly gave a date of "JUNE 30".

    NICE TO SEE THE AWESOME ROBERT PATRICK IN A LEAD ACTION ROLE
    This was one of the many video's i found way bk in the day at a 2nd hand old video store called Enterprise, such a Cool place to find obscure & rare films & they had sections of video's by the actors name so Robert Patrick had his own section & that was too Awesome in my eyes as I've been a huge Robert Patrick fan since T2 & FROM DUSK TILL DAWN 2:TEXAS BLOOD MONEY & really wanted to check out other Patrick films & i found in the Awesome Robert Patrick section HONG KONG '97 & ZERO TOLERANCE!!!! Both good pure 90's action Thriller's but the Awesome vigilante flick Zero Tolerance is the better of the two but hey it was so good to discover two films where Patrick was the action lead!!!! Also stars other B film greats such as Brion James (Nightmare at Noon, Southern Comfort) Tim Thomerson (Nemesis, Dollman) & Andrew Divoff (Wishmaster, Blast) all often star in Albert Pyun films.

    Hong Kong '97 Was pretty good in it's Albert Pyun Directed DTV low-budget quality as the Cult Director always puts plenty of style & slow-mo action on screen for us & he does do plenty of Cool action scenes & shootouts with Robert Patrick looking very Cool in his long coat with two hand guns jumping around capping bad guys & Pyun does this greatly & has many moody music sequences that adds an emotional element to the action scenes.

    Patrick is a hitman on an undercover mission over in Hong Kong & of Course nothing is as it seems & he's hunted by many bad guys with guns & we get a low-budget "John Woo" style action film that yes can be cheesy but it's entertaining & is exactly what it's supposed to be an action B-movie Thriller with a Cool lead in the underrated Robert Patrick who usually gets bit parts in big films & very rarely gets to headline a movie!!!!

    Patrick blew me away with how great he was as criminal Buck in the fantastically fun & ferocious DTV scuzzy sequel From Dusk Till Dawn 2, a real gem for us Horror fans & full of crazy action & bloodshed & put Robert Patrick in the limelight as the movie's hero character & from then on i was a huge fan & he became one of my all time favourite actors ever.

    This is an easy watching action flick with plenty of style & Coolness & a very good Robert Patrick doing plenty of Action, i love B-movies because it gives our other fave actors a chance to lead films & be the main character for once.
