Hon zin 2

This is already a political propaganda film, which clearly puts the Legislative Council on the table. The key is that one of the main plot lines of the whole film is the checks and balances of rights. It's busy to set rules, play in competitions, whistle and send out news releases to make a fool of yourself. Returning to the film itself, it's too far away from the front, and it's hard for the audience to connect the plot. In addition, compared with the previous one, this one is just like turning the table and fighting the knife. The plot has no depth, the story is full of twists and turns, and the struggle turns into a round system. In the first half, I call on you in the second half. If it weren't for some performances, it would be for the evaluation of the dog-tailed mink.

The plot is excellent. The acting was 100% real I am just waiting for the next sequence, Cold War 3 !!

Please hurry up

I can understand many got loss in their arguments, the plots, etc This movie cannot be fully appreciated with just 1 watch.

I have to watch it about 5 times, replay certain parts to know what they are saying because the acting by the actors were truly amazing!

Please hurry the next sequel

While I really enjoyed the first film in this series, this follow-up isn't anywhere near so good. It follows straight on from the first one but brings back characters whose arcs were already complete for a new story that feels like it was made up on the spot. All of the major players return (Andy Lau excepted) with newcomer Chow Yun Fat playing the role of a lawyer eager to prosecute corrupt cops. What we get is a needlessly complex, laboured and occasionally histrionic story that has a few cool action sequences (dodgy CGI aside) and very little else. The actors are fine but but the screenwriter not so...

Let me start out by saying that "Cold War II" from 2016 was just every bit as entertaining as the first "Cold War" movie from 2012. And with that being said, take it for what it was. If you liked the first movie, then you will also like the sequel, and if you didn't, then chances are that you will not like this movie either.

I found it to be adequately entertaining, although it wasn't particularly outstanding or memorable - just as the first movie had been.

"Cold War II" continues on a short time after the events of the first movie, and we see familiar characters return to the screen in this sequel. And having established characters return was a good thing.

However, it just felt as if directors Lok Man Leung and Kim-Ching Luk set out wanting to accomplish too much with "Cold War II" and only delivering on about half of this.

There was just a sense of it all being too rushed and forced, as well of an element of too much chaos going on. Which didn't really help the movie in any way.

As in the first movie, "Cold War II" does have some impressive names to the cast list, including Aaron Kwok, Tony Ka Fai Leung and Yun-Fat Chow.

"Cold War II" failed to make a lasting impression and also failed to stand out in the Hong Kong cinema. Surely, it was an entertaining enough movie, but it is hardly one that you will be watching a second time around.

My rating of "Cold War II" ends on five stars out of ten, similar to the first movie.
