Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover
In this raw and edgy adult action thriller directed by Herman Yau ("The Untold Story"), a naked woman is found dead in an apparent suicide. Her husband (Simon Yam from "Full Contact" and "Tomb Raiders 2") seeks vengeance from a rich businessman suspected of having an affair with his wife by kidnapping the businessman's own mistress. Things soon turn complicated when the kidnapper and his hostage begin an affair of their own.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, if you like that sort..., July 31, 2005

By	classic buff "classic buff" (LA, CA USA) - See all my reviews

First the details left out by Amazon. The stars are Simon Yam and Irene Wan. The Amazon version is rated catagory III, but it is really II-B in terms of content. It is rated All regions, not just U.S. It is, indeed, directed by Herman Yau (not his best) and widescreen. If you are a die-hard fan of Yam or Wan, then go for it. If you are looking for graphic gore or lots of sex, forget it. I say it should be cat II-B because there are about three scenes where people are killed (two by being hit by cars, a little fake blood, not much violence). As far a sex goes, there are several topless scenes, but only one sex scene, about four minutes long, in the middle of the movie between Yam and Wan. It is OK; of course nothing is shown below the waist anywhere in the movie.

Yam portrays a "gentleman" kidnapper. He does not even mean to kidnap Wan, he just wants to beat up her husband for having an affair with his wife (we see a little of this beautiful wife in flashbacks, but not the affair). He is so nice that he takes Wan's baby to the hospital and lets her go without a ramsom. He does, however have a violent temper which we see twice. I will not tell you any more of the plot because this is not a sexy film, it is a murder mystery. Irene Wan is so gorgeous, I enjoy watching her even though she is fully clothed for all but a few short scenes.(...)
