Ko Chow is an undercover cop who is under pressure from all sides. His boss, Inspector Lau, wants him to infiltrate a gang of ruthless jewel thieves; his girlfriend wants him to commit to marriage or she will leave Hong Kong with another lover; and he is being pursued by other cops who are unaware that he is a colleague. Chow would rather quit the force, feeling guilty about betraying gang members who have become his friends.
Slow paced and not all that action heavy. City On Fire does do a better job at creating more tension than Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs. I really liked the final act and how the robbery was orchestrated and stopped by Ko Chow.

Eat Shit Tarantino. Reservoir Dogs is nothing but a mere atom compared to the galaxy of Ringo Lam's City on Fire.
