Summary: Just out of prison, Neil has no plans on returning to the triad, and instead is looking to care for his two sisters, as well as start a personal business with one of his former triad pals (Timmy Hung). But his path to decency is blocked by a variety of forces, including the police, who won't trust a man with his checkered past, as well as newer, more amoral triads like Johnny (Chan Bo Yuen), who insists on trafficking drugs. Neil is drawn back when Uncle Bo (Wong Tin Lam) expresses interest in assigning Neil a district, in order to bring a steadying hand back into the gang. But Johnny takes Uncle Bo's interest in Neil as a threat, and decides to act against Neil's family and friends to insure his unchallenged power. Meanwhile, blue-collar worker Bull (Kenny Wong) is drawn deeper into the underworld when his young son is forced into triad recruitment. After Bull's girlfriend (Winnie Leung) is assaulted by loan sharks, he too becomes fed up - and he finds a kindred spirit in the similarly angry Neil. Armed with knives and ferocious righteousness, the two men strike back the only way they can: with bloody, extreme violence. (Source: yesasia.com)
