An inwardly torn cop plagued by personal and professional vicissitudes , and a young ex-convict, who for him is more important than title Spy infiltrates a gang of criminals, are the two central figures in "The Stool Pigeon" . Director Dante Lam, Johnnie To find the most popular is probably the flagship of the Hong Kong action cinema staged, the story of police officer and protege as a dramatic thriller with noir overtones, spectacular chases and brutal duels. His emphasis is equally on sophisticated visuals, as well as to the sentiment developed with great characters, what the well-known and displaced every conceivable genre cliches grazing history, fortunately, in the background. "The Stool Pigeon" is unfortunately still a little exciting. The Herget ragene right melancholy tone is not related to the stereotyped characters who disrupt many baked sidelines wiring and narrative of the screenplay to enjoy the film as a purely emotional-sensual experience. The remains of the HK-genre film all too significant slope to the sudden outbreak of melodramatic about it strangely ineffective, sometimes impressive, but only touched upon action moments give an incomplete impression. Only in the final run to Lam on poetic form, where it is bloody infighting between the mountains of chairs as extremely intense kinetic violence in the limelight. The bottom line is, unfortunately, a disappointment.
