O Golpe de Ouro

A great action movie performed by Chinese actors Asian movie is at a high level. Only artificial cars explosions are offended, you can see it with the naked eye. Shooting and fighting look more truly. I highly recommend it! Worth watching.

Golden Job from director, action choreographer and stunt man Chin Kar Lok is somewhat a homage to the HK action flicks of the golden years while at the same time suffering from a basic storyline, silly script and typical Chinese film CG - that could have worked so much better in real life!

That said - flaws and all - I was quite entertained with it all. It was great seeing the now mature cast of Young And Dangerous back together again alongside director and star Chin, with the wonderful Eric Tsang and surprise supporting roles from the great Yasuaki Kurata and Billy Chow...

While the story itself was typical of a late 80s/early 90s HK flick, it did lend itself to some fantastic set pieces with nicely choreographed action and gunplay - particularly the last action scene which I found to be great fun!

While far from perfect - with one big let down for me being the lack of martial arts fighting Kurata had, and the same for Billy Chow. I hadn't seen him in anything recent for many years and most of his action scenes were done as gunplay...

I did like Golden Job. Although I caught it on my plane journey to Hong Kong, I'd be quite happy to watch it again on a bigger screen and hopefully appreciate it a bit more.

Hopeful next time, director Chin Kar Lol will lay off the CG and guns and give us some good old 80s style HK martial arts we all really miss!

A peculiar brotherhood of thieves,doing heists in hungary,japan,and montenegro,so there are lots of different spice to boost an action thriller. the filming and sound are great,acting impeccible,the editing and directing are smart and the special effects are good.some of the car driving scenes are spectacular.. there are 0.001% romance in this flick,the rest is pure speed though i felt the blood spatter meter went over the top,i can recommend this film,its good.

Not a satisfying movie. The story line was rushed it was all over the place.. Action was good.

The 2018 Hong Kong movie "Golden Job" (aka "Huang jin xiong di") from director Kar Lok Chin is definitely a trip down to the glorious 1990s, where the Hong Kong cinema was flooded with an abundance of action movies that were not so heavy on the script and storyline but crammed with an orgy of action, shooting and car chases.

"Golden Job" stars a handful of well-established and famous actors in the Hong Kong cinema. So it was definitely a nice treat to sit down and watch the movie, for a long-time fan of the Hong Kong cinema such as myself. The cast list includes the likes of Ekin Cheng, Jordan Chan, Kar Lok Chin, Michael Tse and of course Eric Tsang.

The storyline in "Golden Job" was entertaining for what it was, but don't expect this to be an intricate plot of twists and surprises. It was pretty straightforward, but also predictable and simplistic. But it worked out well in the charm of the feel of the golden age of Hong Kong action cinema.

The action sequences were nicely choreographed and executed, and they did carry the movie a long way. But needless to say that the collective acting efforts of the established cast also did its share to bring enjoyment to the movie.

All in all, "Golden Job" is an entertaining and enjoyable action movie, definitely watchable for what it was. I am rating the movie six out of ten stars. However, this is hardly a movie that warrants more than just a single viewing, because the storyline doesn't really have that much contents to offer - let's just be honest about that.

If you are a fan of the Hong Kong cinema, then you should take the time to sit down and watch "Golden Job". However, if you are new to the Hong Kong cinema, then there are far better movies to sit down and watch.
