Bo chi tung wah

A guy got call from unknown number and women who was kidnapped from other state cops...then that guy tries to rescue her.. Its a great thriller from starting of the movie...and some scenes protogonist express his humour sense too... Defintely its a rewatchable movie..!!!

The movie often strains credulity even for a formula action film, especially during the early protracted, wacky car chase. And the continuity editor often dropped the ball. Still, the actors are well cast and work hard; the plot is often gripping, and the ending is satisfying. It's a good Sunday afternoon popcorn ride from the sofa.

I do not usually watch HK movies due to it being filled with low quality commercial craps banking on famous celebrities.

However, I was interested in this movie after seeing Barbie Hsu getting a nomination as Best Actress in HK film awards and knowing that it is based on Hollywood version "Cellular". I knew, I have to watch it.

To my expectation, this movie did not disappoint. The directing and acting is pretty solid and Barbie Hsu does deserve the nomination. This one have more action than Cellular and to those who can relate to the HK culture of this movie will find this better than Cellular. There are movie subplots in this one than in Cellular which adds up a little more plot holes (or rather cheesy parts) but for the better.

I also like the fact that the director decided to go with multilingual where some of the actors are allowed to speak their native tongue of Mandarin as to doing voice-over of Cantonese. It made the whole movie much more believable and watchable. The only part I really dislike is the voice-over for Louis Koo which was badly done and clearly is not his voice.

Overall, this is one of the better movie I have watched from HongKong for a long long time. I cannot remember watching any action movie as good as this that does not sacrifice good acting and storyline.

I never watched the original but connected is an amazing thriller it had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end the acting is great and the ending is perfect Chinese cinema is way better than Hollywood

Highly recommended

A Hong Kong film. A guy is driving to the airport to meet his son, when he receives a phone call from a woman claiming she has been kidnapped and not to hang up. The guy finds himself knotted into a live crime and becoming more and more entwined speeding around Hong Kong trying to save the woman in his tie. Great action and keeps trying to get over the top like a Jackie Chan movie. Crazy action my kind of fun. Forcing this office man to break the law to get stuff done. Hilarious.
