A girl from war-devastated Hong Kong in 2005 returns to the present to destroy the man responsible for bombing himself and his VP boss at a foundation plant ceremony. It is prophesied that the aftermath of the bombing will lead to devastating wars in the future. With the man eliminated wars can be prevented, but the spirit of his great-grandfather wants to save him. This is my favorite action-adventure movie from Hong Kong, about a girl named San (Sally Yeh) who visits 1985 Hong Kong from the future to warn the people about impending wars. She is instructed to eliminate the man (Wai Lam) indirectly responsible for those wars, but is thwarted by a spirit (Po-Chih Leong).<br/><br/>The plot is intriguing and exciting, providing a to-the-point story and no unnecessary fillers. It's a fast-paced movie that will grasp the audience's attention immediately, helped with an adventurous and catchy music score by Violet Lam.<br/><br/>Wai Lam does an excellent job playing Lam Fung, who is in charge of a foundation plant and is protected from danger by the spirit of his great-grandfather, Tang San (Po-Chih Leong). Lam delivered good on-screen drama, balanced by some light and witty humor by Leong. Sally Yeh plays female lead San, who's mission is to eliminate Fung but ended up getting mixed in with an unlikely relationship with him and in a cat and mouse chase with the ghost.<br/><br/>There is not too much action in the film, save for a couple of scenes toward the climax. However, it is a suspenseful adventure that should have you glued in your TV.<br/><br/>Grade A
Thank you for sharing this movie with me! My friends and I are having game night tomorrow and I am thinking, for a breaker, we'd have this. Sometimes, when we want to have a chill night we just play this game where we ask the akinator random questions about our favorite celebrities or we play blockman go on pc. But for tomorrow night, my pal said that he’s gonna surprise us with a new game. I wonder if it is any good.
