Has anyone else seen this movie? Actually it has 3 parts. By far the best Chinese movie I have ever seen!!! HK cinema has definitely stepped it up for this one.

It is really in the Spy vs Spy genre. Story is based around two guys, one is a cop going undercover into Triads and the second guy is a Triad going undercover into the Triads. So the cat and mouse begins. Very original story line.

So original that Hollywood again is stealing another idea ;). Apparently Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio are doing a remake of this. Directed by Martin Scorcese called The Departed. Based in Boston w/ the Irish gangs vs the Boston PD.

Definitely try to catch the Chinese version before the watching the American one.

^ Yup looks like it is right.

Rent the first one first. Then in case you don't like it, then you don't have to see the rest of the story ;) .

the trailer

ah, and i knew there was something between the 2 guys, they were good friends before hand.

I think the trailer might have messed up. They weren't friends. They met each other at the police academy.
