...in form and spirit, it’s a cynical comic western of the kind pioneered by Budd Boetticher and given epic scale by Sergio Leone. [...] To keeps the suspense flowing on several levels at once, as the film moves from one impeccably executed action sequence to the next, and still finds room for rich characterizations (the insolent, imperturbable Wong may be the only authentic heir to Bogart) and plenty of humor. The widescreen compositions are careful and expressive, the rhythms artfully varied and irresistible, and the film plays with the unpretentious assurance of classical Hollywood at its height. Sheer pleasure.

OMG OMG OMG it sounds amazing. basically anything with both Anthony Wong and Francis Ng in it already has real estate in my heart, but all the Johnnie To action films I've seen I've loved. oh HK film, how could we have grown apart.
