Andy is super cool, but lacks the ambition to rise in the ranks of the triad societies, and once he meets his cousin (Maggie Cheung), and falls in love with her, he decides he wants to leave “the life”. But it turns out that he has to bail out Jacky one more time. And this time, Jacky may have gone too far.Read More »
