Basically it is the movie ‘Training Day’ only set in Chinatown. Chow Yun-Fat is cool as the dirty cop taking a rookie (Wahlberg) under his wing. There’s a tense car chase that is pretty well staged. The mood is sleazy and no one can be trusted. As grimy as things get, you really buy the friendship formed between the two leads.

Another of Chow Yun Fat's decent but unspectacular early forays into Hollywood, it has a nice gritty feel and an interesting culture clash backdrop. Not up to the standard of his HK films, but a creditable cop thriller.
