A hired killer is stuck with a suicidal teenager in this darkly comic, manically zany murder-drama saturated with Hong Kong nostalgia.

Former matinee idol Patrick Tse (84) still rules the screen in this darkly comic film about hired killer Chau, now operating with an elderly clientele until he becomes entangled with a suicidal teenager. Funny, poignant drama from Hong Kong that celebrates a nostalgic love for a city slipping away.
