辣警霸王花2不義之戰

An ultraviolent cops vs. gangsters bloodbath leaves casualties on both sides. Fast forward twenty years as surviving team member Madam Fong (Jade Leung, Black Cat) leads a new squad in pursuit of freckless young anarchists terrorizing Macao. An apparition from that fatal day falls into the fray, bringing everything full circle for a serpentine and explosive final confrontation.

With bad ass modern women warriors at the forefront, director Jacky Lee effortlessly exudes the hyperbolic styling of classic Hong Kong action, bringing back the irrepressible ‘girls with guns’ sub-genre in full bombastic force.
