When Des Mangan said that this was the most action packed of the In the Line of Duty Movies he was not wrong. We open with a fight scene between a Chinese immigrant and five tough guys, and the immigrant wins. Basically the action of this movie is almost non-stop and it keeps you focused right through to the end. Sometimes simply watching kung-fu fights, one because bored of them, but this movie seemed to give life into these fights.
Basically a Hong Kong cop (Cynthia Kahn) and a Seattle cop (Donny Yueng) are working together to bust a drug ring operating between Seattle and Hong Kong. Another immigrant sees a cop who has just been shot after witnessing the CIA backstabbing the drug ring and taking the drugs for themselves. The immigrant takes the film and flees while being chased by many nasty people. As the CIA have control of a lot of law enforcement agencies, this guy finds himself not only fleeing the crooks, but also the police and other authorities.
Soon he returns to Hong Kong and proves to the two officers that he is innocent, but can identify the villains, so they find themselves the target of assassins. After getting into lots of trouble and trying to root out corrupt cops, they confront the baddies, have a big fight, and win. Nothing deep, but simply a movie one watches for the action as that is what entertains people these days (and those who find American action to be quite dry, turn to Hong Kong cinema to see what it is really done.)
