"Cop on a Mission"
2001
Directed by Marco Mak

Far more exciting than Cop on a Coffee Break. Daniel Ng stars as an undercover cop hired as a bodyguard by a Triad boss (Eric Tsang). The lawman finds that he actually prefers the outlaw life, but trouble brews when the crime boss suspects his new employee is romantically involved with his wife. "Cop on a Mission may be the best gangster film to cross the Pacific since Johnny To's The Mission" (Bob Graham, San Francisco Chronicle). Cantonese with English subtitles. 104 minutes.
