水滸傳之英雄本色

Director: Chan Wui Ngai

Starring: Tony Leung, Joey Wang, Elvis Tsui, Lau Ching Wan

Lin Chun is the Chief Instructor of eight hundred thousand Imperial Guards, and is naive to the intricacy and power of politics. His honesty and loyalty leads to him being framed by treacherous court officials, until he befriends a monk named Ru Chi-Shen.

A remake of the Shaw Brothers' "Pursuit." Tony Leung plays Lin Chung a leader of the troops who befriends a monk Ru Chi-Shen (played by Tsui Kam-Kong) and they become brothers. General Kao's son lusts after and even tries to rape Lin's wife (Joey Wong).

Lu Chien and General Kao set up Lin to look like an assassin and then try to execute him on the spot (luckily, the prime minister, played by Wu Ma saves him). On the way to trial, they try to kill him again, but the monk saves him. Lu Chien makes Kao's son kill Lin's wife. Then its all out bloodshed and revenge. Great flying Kung Fu fighting and a good plot.
