Synopsis: Simon Yam, Sammo Hung, Donnie Yen along with Wu Jing star in this new dark, gritty actioner directed by Wilson Yip. A man that will do anything to keep his criminal empire, a man that walks the fine line between ‘protect and serve' and the very element he stands against, and a man pushed to excel in the shadow of personal failure. None are left unscathed. Chan's [Simon Yam] sense of justice and self-imposed personal duty tests his adherence to the principles he upholds as a policeman. The head of a specialty police unit, he is nearing retirement, yet his adopted daughter is a constant reminder of a crime boss that won't go gently into that good night. Moreover, Po [Sammo Hung] has evolved since that time, becoming more and more of a kingpin and growing increasingly untouchable. Chan can't walk away without setting things right, but they have nothing on him. Knowing Po was behind the murder and destruction of evidence that orphaned his adopted daughter, Chan is torn by doing what he knows is right, yet he manages to keep his actions within the law despite temptation. Ma [Donnie Yen] will take Chan's place as head of the unit, and joins shortly before Chan's retirement. Ma might be seen as a by the books cop, but he wasn't always like that and the escalating confrontation between Chan and Po tests his resolve to stay out of the shadow that haunts him. It's that same resolve that causes Chan and Ma to not see eye to eye on things when they manage to grab Po, but they won't be able to keep him. With time sifting through the proverbial hour glass both men's integrity is tried as Po's patience wears thin- the result has bloody consequences.
