"City on Fire" far and away is much better than Tarantino's movie "Reservoir Dogs". City on Fire is not like any of Chow Yun-Fat's other movies in that it contains less gun play and less violence. But one thing that is intact is the great story. This is one of the best undercover cop stories there are and no American film company could do it better, they could only copy it like Tarantino. As said before, Yun-Fat is an undercover cop who must bust thieves who are going to pull a big job. One of the thieves is Danny Lee from the Chow Yun-Fat movie "The Killer." If you want to see a smart action film then you must get this one because it actually makes sense.
