Customer Reviews of Big Bullet

Good action thriller with cool characters
The characters are particularly memorable in this movie, which is saying quite a bit about the quality of this action flick. Lau Ching Wan plays a tough well-respected cop who gets demoted to the Emergency Unit (after he punched a superior) and joins with four other cops, each with very different personalities. The characters are excellent and the way they play off each other is quite endearing, dramatic, and funny. And then, there's the two evil druglord villains whom they must eventually tangle with. Action scenes are fast and furious (occasionally confusing), and story moves quite quickly. A highly entertaining movie.

As for the DVD, I found it pretty okay, as there are some extra trailers of other movies which was kind of nice, although DVD didn't allow me to skip through the the studio/warning setences and stuff in the beginning.

another good HK action police story worth watching
After assaulting his superior officer, well decorated cop Bill gets reassigned to the less glamorous Emergency Unit. Circumstances put Bill on the trail of escaped international criminal Professor, and his accomplice Birdie. The mechanics of this film are truly mediocre - it's a standard plot with cookie cutter characters. But the enormously talented cast, subtly humourous script, and one very well choreographed action sequence make this film quite enjoyable. Lau Ching Wan is in top form, Jordan makes the best of his cliched character, Theresa shows the same energy she had in _What A Wonderful World_, and Spencer even gets to do some football play-by-play. Francis Ng Chun Yu doesn't ham it up, for once, and puts in a solid supporting role. If you enjoyed this film, you may enjoy _In The Heat Of Summer_ even more. -P

Excellent Hong Kong police drama.
The 90's has been far from the golden period of Hong KOng cinema, but there are still plenty of stand-out films from this period. This ranks as one of them. Recently, some directors have fallen into the trap of putting style over content, but Big Bullet manages to reverse this trend. The story follows a demoted cop who joins with the Emergency Unit to capture two dangerous criminals. This unit has the usual mixture of cops each with their own story. However, Benny Chan has managed to create an excellent chemistry between the five heroic leads. Up against them are two of Hong Kongs great villains, Anthony Wong and Yu Wing Gong. Naturally the sparks fly spectatularly. Highly entertaining viewing.
