This is a classic gritty 'Heroic Bloodshed' actioner from legendary Hong Kong production studio Shaw Brothers who were mainly known for their kung fu movies and although this doesn't have much kung fu to speak of it makes up for it with insane brawls, shootouts & car chase's. It's basically two separate stories connected by the cops trying to enforce the law. The first is about a group of down and outer's planning a job so they can start a new life the other is a gangster who has returned to get revenge on the crime boss that wronged him. With great direction, action, a cool synth rock soundtrack & some Shaw Bros regulars in lead roles (The Venoms) if you're a HK action fan or just an action fan in general check it out.

Warning: Spoilers
It's about the relationship between god and earth.Or maybe it's not maybe it's a religious allegory or maybe it's the journey of conception to birth to death who really knows besides Darren who probably has an extreme boner from all the discussion this film has created. Say what you will about it but it does hold your attention through the two hour run time and has some solid performances.
