'Moving Targets' follows the story of Kit (Nicolas Tse with weird long hair) who is working under his father, Man (Simon Yam), in the Hong Kong police force. What we find out about their family is that when Kit was a boy, as a father had shot his mother one day and disappeared. He and his mother had moved away from home and had been wandering around until Kit and his best friend, Fit (a very gangster-looking Edison Chen), decide to become police officers. However, Kit had grown up resenting his father- after all, he HAD shot his beloved mom. After being offered a job with his father's squad, Kit takes this opportunity to nail his old dad.
But as Kit is doing whatever he does, Fit is drawn to the dark side. Big Bryan (Ken Tong without hair), one of Hong Kong's most wanted, offers him millions of dollars and threatens to hurt his family, etc, and so on. But soon the Hong Kong police force launches a stationwide search for Big Bryan and his co-horts, what will become of Kit and Fit?
I did not enjoy this movie much, and considering that I am a raving Edision fan, that's a lot to say from me. 'Moving Targets' is supposed to be mainly focused on the life of Kit, but I think it strayed way to much to Edison during the movie, making it look like Edison was the main character. Basically, this is just another cop flub intended for the voracious young teenage audience.
Some scenes came out a little too cheesy and fake, e.g- the police ambush to rescue Little Bryan (what was with the weird camera shots??) and when Fit's mother is taken away by Big Bryan (bad acting). But hey, don't get me wrong- some scenes were pretty good: the time when Wing (Gillian Chung from Twins) gives fit her necklace, Chuen's funeral (or was it Ho?), and the ending, which I will not spoil. But I'll give you a hint- it made me cringe.
I would recommend this movie if you are an obsessive fan of either Chen, Tse or Chung, but otherwise, this is hardly a film worth seeking out.
