5.0 out of 5 stars OOPS....Ringo did it again, July 31, 2000

This review is from: The Suspect (DVD)

What shall I say? I nearly watched all the movies of Ringo Lam. OK, Maximum Risk wasn't that good, but overall none of his movies (eg. WILD SEARCH, FULL CONTACT, PRISON ON FIRE)ever disappointed me. I even liked it better than THE VICTIM.

This is a movie about friendship, honor and betrayal. The most frequent ingredients for a heroic bloodshed movie.

Here there are two friends who were in the assassin business 12 years ago. One get caught, the other escapes. When he finally gets out of the prison he is forced by his friend to kill a nominee for the president in the Philipines. When he refuses, he gets accused by his friend.

Now the Police, the Triad and a third party are looking for the suspect....

Doesn"t sound very appealing but is really worth watching. In addition the DVD of the 1998 film has a good picture and a good sound. Even the subtitles are readable all the time!

Don't expect silly non-stop action- or you will be disappointed. This is a high class thriller with a plot!
