Synopsis:
Two very different crime-busters are linked together by a murder case.
Mainland's former policeman Lincoln, whose brother was robbed and killed, comes to Hong Kong in search for the murderer. Michael, a rich kid as well as a local cop, always disobeys his supervisor's orders. At one time, he even uses his private helicopter to chase after a suspect. This caused him to be suspended from duty.
At first, Michael doesn't care about Lincoln, who is a bumpkin in his eyes, but when he knows Lincoln is his ex-girlfriend Lisa's admirer, his bursts into anger and asks him to leave Lisa alone. In order to shrug him off, Michael promises to offer his help in searching for the murderer.
As the son of a Hong Kong millionaire, Michael spends a lot of money to build up the strongest informant network. This allows easy access to the latest news and secrets from the underworld. Lincoln, having inherited his brother's club house business, also does not need to worry about money. Being a meticulous guy, Lincoln enjoys chatting with different people, and is good at finding out clues from the conversations. The two guys with very different investigating methods work together and eventually track down a key person named "Rat"!
^ The poster is really misleading ... but the movie itself is alright. There are plenty of pretty people so that was enough to keep me through the entire thing. Shawn and Linda were the draw for me, and they did a decent job ... story was predictable, although the fate of Shawn's character was a little disappointing for me, the fighting was decent ... so yea, an okay movie in my opinion ... but Shawn is so gorgeous that I'll sit through anything with him in it ... hehehe ..
