Although many considered this
movie as not living up to its expectations, to me personally the movie Best of
the Best has 4-5 very emotional appeal to the audiences. The first coming in
at the start and gradually building up to another one and then to an ultimate
emotional finale. In terms of action, fans of that genre will think this a bad
movie, however, this is actually more of a drama with the character Jacky
Cheung playing a SDU and his father played by Ng Man Tat as ex-cop are both
very well developed and the relationship of father and son here is very
interesting. The pre-superstar - Sammi Cheng in her first movie shows real
promise as Jacky's girlfriend and daughter of gang leader. Direct Herman Yau
here does a terrific job by turning an average script written by himself into
an emotional movie and although not many bullets fired, it is very much like
the effect of 2002's Internal Affairs. The overall result is excellent and
leaving the viewers thinking about the reality of the world.
