- Under first-rate direction
by Stanley Tong, Michelle Yeoh reprises her mainland cop character
Hana Yang from Police Story III: Supercop. This time
she's sent to Hong Kong on a mission to stop a mainland gang
that's robbed a bank. However, what she doesn't know is that
her former boyfriend (Yu Rong-Guang) happens to be the leader
of that same gang. When she eventually finds out the terrible
truth, she's torn between her feelings of love and her strong
sense of honor — I'm sure you can easily guess which side wins
out! Emil Chau naturally portrays a cop in this film, and in my opinion
he's SUPER! One of his most famous
ballads, You
Make Me Happy and Sad, also served as the theme of Project
S.
