Thousands of gangsters films out there, and none can compare to its intensity of the very dangerous lives of true gangsters' circles. Done and scripted in such a great intensity, vigorously directed by the talented Director, best performed by two professional male leads, one Caucasian, one Asian. I have never seen TENSION can be created so interestingly as well as intensively that provokes the "conflicts" of a gangsters circle: its twists and turns against the cops, and the cops in every single turn in cracking the business of the gangsters. This film makes all other up and coming Chinatown stories insignificant. We have a lot to learn from the true professionals. Watch it again and again, and watch it many times to get "it".
