Flash Point (2007)
7/10
Good action, but the plot and depth are lacking.
18 October 2010
Unlike Sha Po Lang (SPL / "Kill Zone"), Flashpoint lacks the character depth and memorability of its predecessor. The action scenes in Flashpoint are good -- sometimes great -- and something you would expect from the actor and director from SPL. However, there is a lack of the emotional intensity of the previous film.

As the characters are never really developed very much, nor are the relationships between them very well explored -- its hard to feel the emotional build up to the finale.

In short: a fun film with some good fighting scenes, but a largely forgettable and somewhat implausible plot. If you haven't already, go see Sha Po Lang / SPL / Kill Zone instead.
