Downtown Torpedoes

POVZETEK

Western-style action picture uses cool action sequences to entertain despite a paper-thin plot and non-existent characterization.
Hong Kongs answer to Mission: Impossible is a slight action-thriller thats carried out professionally and commercially. Jackal (Takeshi Kaneshiro), Cash (Jordan Chan) and Sam (Charlie Young) form the core of ATM (Available Tactical Mercenaries), an industrial espionage unit that utilizes high-tech gadgetry to steal technology and fence it on the black market. However, theyre blackmailed by the Hong Kong government (led by Alex Fong Chung-Sun) to snatch some counterfeit plates called SN2 from the British MI5. Naturally stuff goes wrong, our heroes are framed for SN2s disappearance, and then they must set about clearing their names with whatever hi-tech gadgets they have leftover.
