Lo Lieh final work

This is a very subtle but powerful movie although the budget might be low and the location might looks shady but over all this there is a powerful message to be shown on todays society.. although this movie was 20 odd years ago the director manage to show the trouble within the 3 generations...

firstly we see Ah Chu the teenage daughter who went missing and her friend P Zai and his boyfriend who wanders the street with drugs because of the mistreatment from their family... which also the result in todays society.

Secondly we can see the working class aka the parents which in a city where everything is expensive and not affordable the parents work practically everyday by making them neglects the surrounding even the elders and the children...

Thirdly we see our old and forgotten hero which after the retirement from government police aka Gong Aun rather live as a security in a deserted island of a funfair..

This movie came out before the use of smartphone.. the director is trying to portrays that within 3 generations when there is no communication... it will be the end of society

Everyone chasing after their own interest even neglects the surrounding around them

Good movie indeed.
