City on Fire

Often cited as the inspiration for Quentin Tarantino's first film, Reservoir Dogs, this Hong Kong kung fu action thriller features Chow Yun-Fat at his best. Ko Chow (Yun-Fat) is a police detective who goes undercover to shake down jewel thieves. When he is injured in the middle of a heist, the thieves suspect he is an infiltrator. Guns blaze and cars speed in this fast-paced film from Ringo Lam (Triangle).
