Flash Point

Flash Point (traditional Chinese: 導火綫; simplified Chinese: 导火线) is a 2007 Hong Kong action film directed by Wilson Yip and written by Szeto Kam-Yuen and Nicholl Tang. It stars Donnie Yen, Shan Dong-bing, Nansun Shi and Zhang Zhao, alongside Louis Koo, Collin Chou, Lui Leung-wai, Fan Bingbing and Xing Yu. Yen plays Ma Jun, a police sergeant who plants his partner Wilson (Louis Koo) as a mole in a pursuit against a triad led by three Vietnamese brothers (played by Chou, Lui and Xing). Flash Point was repeatedly hailed as a prequel to the 2005 film SPL: Sha Po Lang, which was Yip and Yen's first feature film collaboration as director and star respectively. Yen denied the SPL prequel reports, stating that Flash Point was a completely original film. Principal photography beg
