Johnnie To's satiric action thriller balances these elements to perfection. Cops pursue robbers who take refuge in a labyrinthine apartment block, unaware that two hit-men are already holed up there. The real battle, though, is that for favourable media coverage as the cop's press briefings are contradicted by the perps' uploaded images of events to the net. The result is a funny and media savvy film with top performances from Richie Ren as 'Uncle Robber', Yong You as 'Uncle Killer and Kelly Chen as the ruthless, PR obsessed commissioner.
