Hard Boiled
“As a cop, he has brains, brawn, and an instinct to kill.”
ActionThrillerCrime
A cop who loses his partner in a shoot-out with gun smugglers goes on a mission to catch them. In order to get closer to the leaders of the ring he joins forces with an undercover cop who's working as a gangster hitman. They use all means of excessive force to find them.
VIBE
This is a relentless, operatic ballet of bullets and brotherhood. It feels like a high-octane adrenaline shot, a beautifully choreographed storm of stylized violence and emotional intensity. Prepare for a euphoric, yet often melancholic, ride through a world where loyalty is everything and the line between hero and villain blurs in a hail of gunfire.
