Good dose of ballistic action with some martial arts, to tell a story of revenge and bloody  betrayals, that follows the story of a hitman who is hired by a gangster (played by an old TVB glory like Kent Tong ) who orders him to eliminate a female journalist who is about to expose to the public all his drty deeds. but things get complicated when the girl’s husband, a former bodyguard, who shares a tragic past linked to the hitman, appears to protect her. The conflict reopens  wounds from the past that lead to a bloody and tragic outcome, which is resolved under a bloody rain of bullets.

Very well shot, with good action sequences, that seek to emulate the epic of the masters of bloodshed, and a very well-constructed story that adds emotion to the most exciting moments in the plot, making the audience get involved in the suffering of the characters, and Most importantly, without any of that stupid mandarin comedy that only manages to get you out of history. As a colophon, the film is shot in Hong Kong, which aesthetically always gives a touch of epic to this type of productions that makes them unique and special.
