                        Hui Man Keung: I will leave Shanghai once my job is finished. At that time, everything in Shanghai will go to you.

                        Ding Lik: I don't want your sacrifice. I can give you everything, but why do you fight for Ching-Ching with me? Why?

                      Very Good Gangster flick Hong Kong Style

                      This fairly big budget flick with Andy Lau is a complex gangster story with several sub-plots. Set in the 30s the movie is stylish, violent, and very entertaining. A great "first film" for those new to Hong Kong cinema. Almen Wong shines as the nameless brutally insane assassin, the worlds prettiest hired thug!
