The Hong Kong Police Department is trying to stop the Big Circle Gang, so they hire three former cops from mainland China — Li Heung-Tung (Elvis Tsui), Hok Kwan (Yat-Chor Yuen) and King San (Ben Lam) — to join the gang and get evidence in exchange for Hong Kong citizenship.
Hok Kwan falls in love with one of the family members of the gang, Diana (Siu-Fong Wong), while King San brags to his lover that he’s undercover, which puts everyone in the crosshairs of the triads. By then, the cops have no needs of them and they’re on their own.
Not a sequel outside of the name, I still enjoyed this. It has some good action but none of the emotions of the original. It was directed by Michael Mak Tong Kit, whose brother Johnny made the first part.
88 Films has released this film and Long Arm of the Law in a box set. It comes with new artwork by Sean Longmore, stunning new 2K restorations of both films, commentary on both films by Frank Djeng and interviews with Phillip Can and Michael Mak. You can get it from MVD.
