Shark Busters |
¡@
The movie was awarded as one of the "Films of Merit" in 2002 by the Hong Kong Film Critics Society
"Using its story of policemen in debt
to reflect upon Hong Kong's current economic malaise and the loss of moral
values, the film is shot in a humorous, impertinent style but retaining a
certain optimism." - The Hong Kong Film Critics
Society

"The economic crisis hits the police
department, and virtually every officer owes money to loan sharks. Shark Busters
overturns the conventions of the cop movie by depicting cops as the victims, and
giving as good as they get to their tormentors, based on the adage that cops are
"the greatest gang on the streets". Danny Lee heads an ensemble cast
of fine supporting actors with Brian Ireland standing out as a gweilo
lawyer-turned-cop who works both sides of the fence. Herman Yau's witty
direction underscores the fact that the current malaise affects all sectors of
Hong Kong society. Even cops have to make a living!" - The 27th Hong Kong
International Film Festival

Synopsis: After the media reveals Police Inspector Lee (Danny Lee) owes over HK$400 thousand on his credit card, Lee and his squad are subjected to internal investigation. However, there is a method to Lee's madness as the massive debt is a wedge that allows him and his squad to
bust up a loan sharking ring. |
