Runtime: Hong Kong:107 min / USA:88 min Country: Hong Kong / USA Language: English / Cantonese / Mandarin Color: Color Pan & Scan Sound Mix: Dolby Digital / SDDS Certification: Finland:K-16 (video premiere) / Germany:12 / Netherlands:12 / Norway:15 / Portugal:M/12 / Spain:13 / UK:12 / USA:PG-13 / Singapore:PG Trivia: Since Annie Wu didn't speak Cantonese at that time (she was just learning the language), all of her scenes and those of Uncle Seven and his family (including Jackson Lau) were done in Mandarin. Thus, most of this film was shot in Mandarin, not Cantonese. Goofs: Revealing mistakes: In the ski chase scene when the helicopter drops its second load of soldiers, the one on the right drops off, stumbles, and falls just before the scene cuts away. Quotes: Chan Ka Kui: [phone call] Uncle Bill! I'm calling you right now from Australia and I'm having a great time! I'm talking to you while enjoying my great view. Wow! Working for the FSB is great. I have a sauna, swimming pool, and jacuzzi. Oh, wait a second. My koala bear just came out. Uncle Bill: [on the other end of the call] What? You mean in your hotel room? It's only a toy, right? Chan Ka Kui: No. It's the real thing! [hands the phone to the koala bear] Chan Ka Kui: Say hi to Uncle Bill. [takes the phone back] Chan Ka Kui: He's too shy. Don't hang up. Hong Kong Policeman: [to Bill] He's living it up. I should've gone with him. Chan Ka Kui: Really. I'm not making this up! What else? Money...clothes....car. I feel almost like James Bond. Except no gorgeous girls. Uncle Bill: Hey. If all of this is for real, you should be very careful. [...] Awards: 2 wins & 5 nominations |
