97 Goo wak chai: Zin mo bat sing

This is definitely the best out of all the Young and Dangerous Series. The loyalty and comraderie within the triad is well played out and the scene where San Gai is scolded is especially powerful. The way Ekin Cheng just downed all those beers and walked aimlessly down the street is a damn near perfect mimic of what a real gu wa zai would do in such a situation. The ending was great and uplifting, short of giving it away. Definitely the best in the series.

I'm guessing that this movie got a low rating from the conservatives who don't like to see the proliferation of the idealization of gangs but I ask that you judge the film on its own merit. This is a must-see if you want to take a look at the gritty life of a Hong Kong triad society member, glorified of course. Enjoy.

The main focus of this movie was set on Chicken (Jordan Chan), it describes the difficultness of reaching a branch leader position. I caught weak points here and there as it shows useless scene of High School students, unknown continuity of Barbarian's position, no strong direction of Chan Ho Nam's love story (played beautifully by Cheng Yee Kin). However, the musical scene when Ho Nam cried and scold Chicken as he loses one of his best buddy (again) really a big help to this movie. I think this is the most dramatic episode of Y&D series.
