The triad-lobby has numerous people attempting to hook Dragon back in. That's because 'every time he tries go get out, they pull him back in.' Though he wants nothing from that world anymore, he can't exactly escape it. No, he's a legendary ex-triad who was famed for his ability to kick ass like you wouldn't believe. However, Dragon isn't just your standard ex-con ex-triad. He spends his days with ex-triad pal Lam Suet while making small change as a busboy. Director Jingle Ma does a credible job with the actors, but his storytelling choices leave a little to be desired.Ĭheng plays Dragon, an ex-convict who works at the Kowloon Cafe after his release from prison. Review by Kozo: Ekin Cheng makes his bid for Andy Lau-like status with this ambitious triad movie that's interesting but questionably staged. This is a decent outing with an effective central performance by Ekin Cheng, but it's ultimately only slightly above average. Year: 2001 Ekin Cheng Director: Cast:, Wong Bun-Yuen, Tam Wai-Ho The Skinny: Competent and entertaining triad drama that never rises above its genre because of the routine handling from director Jingle Ma.
