The reversion is a terribly scripted, poorly directed and laughable acted product. Aaron Kwok did a poor job to play the corrupt detective role from the very beginning, his acting was just horrible; rigid, exaggerated and pretentious. He is supposed to be an A-list actor and a star, but in this film, he only showed what he was short of.

The locality had moved to the southeast Asia. Tryng to avoid hitting a dog then hit a human instead was the only watchable segment. Then the ridiculous unreasonable scenes started to come up one after another. Picking up the corpse and putting into his trunk was the most ridiculous scene that only conveniently served the following up ridiculous consequential scenarios and plots, unavoidably push this film into a very painful viewing. The screenplay was such a weak and moronic script, full of unnatural flaws and plot holes big enough to drive a truck through. Terrible through and through, man.

And this is how you tell a story! Not a boring moment in this movie, amazing performance by the villain, one of the best villains ever! half the film is made at a cost of nothing - and yet these parts are brilliant! So much to learn from this film for future film writers, directors and actors, some compare this to "Die hard" well, no comparison, if in DH you understand the lightness of the plot, and are sure that nothing will harm the hero, here, you are sure of nothing. Great!

Don't listen to the guy who claims this is terrible, it's an okay thriller. Just okay though. The Korean original, "A Hard Day", from 2014, is better. While the differences in the events that unfold in the two versions of the movie are minor, the differences in acting and directing are more palpable. The actor for the main character in the Korean version does a much better job, and even aside from that, the personality of the character he plays is different from that of the one in the Chinese version, and well, the way he is portrayed in the Korean version just seems a lot more fitting and realistic. Same with the directing too; Just as an example, in a scene in the Chinese version where cheerful music plays, and the main character drives off laughing, the Korean version of the same scene has him being stressed and panicked, and serious music playing. That isn't to say that there aren't plenty of serious scenes in the Chinese version as well, but it's just..I don't know, overall, it just feels a bit off somehow.

This is a decent watch, but having watched both versions back-to-back, I say just go with Korean movie. It is definitely the better of the two. I would give this one a 6, and the Korean one a 7 or 8.

Some people like it. Some others don't. Me, I like it. I think its OK.

The movie has some good action fun dialogue and humor, very typical in this Hong Kong film genre, and i liked it.

Lead super star and one of the "4 heavenly kings" Aaron Kwok - who never seem to age - did a fine job as Gao, the corrupt Hong Kong cop and loving family man trying to cover his wrongdoings.

Well-established Chinese actress Liu Tao - acting as Gao's wife - did great as well, looking as cute as ever. And actress with so much more success awaiting for her.

However, the other actors unfortunately did not hit the mark.

The plot adaptation is decent, even though expected as the movie is based on a known Korean production.

I watched the film in Pattaya, Thailand, where it was titled "Peace Breaker."

Wait for the closing credits to see two additional cool scenes.

Waiting for Aaron Kwok's coming movies.

It was a remake, only the shape was taken, and the spirit was lost. Except Wang Qianyuan, everyone else is a garbage show.
