Introduction to the film
"Head to head" is an American action film based on the return of Hong Kong. Director Tsui Hark insists on shooting in Hong Kong, the city he is familiar with. The producer of the film said that the Australian, Thai, American and Chinese people on the crew made the world look small. the story tells that on the eve of Hong Kong's return to the motherland, the US Central Intelligence Agency found that an international terrorist organization was colluding with Hong Kong's counterfeiting industry giant to ship a large number of counterfeit V6 jeans with miniature bombs to the United States. The CIA has sent Harry, Tommy and Karen to investigate the case. Marcus, the supplier of V6 company in Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong police found out Harry, who was behind the terrorist case. They sacrificed their lives to rescue Tommy and Karen, who were in danger, and beat the terrorists head on. Tsui Hark, the great director, has made more than 50 films. Most of his original action films are set in ancient China and are good at their unique imagination. Although "head on" is a Hollywood style entertainment film, there are also traces of Hong Kong films everywhere. For example, the way to create comic effects in the film is very Hong Kong oriented. Because the background is the return of Hong Kong, the film is interspersed with some historical scenes. He was born in Belgium in 1960. He was originally a Sanda athlete, and later developed in Hollywood. From 1984 to now, he has played in many action films. He once cooperated with John Woo in starring in "the ultimate target", and "head on" is his second film with Tsui Hark. In this film, he plays a typical tough role, brave, honest, witty, decisive. He said that this role is different for me, because the character I play is very eye-catching in the play and is often attacked, but he can't get out of danger without humor. He also said that since I first came to Hong Kong at the age of 19, I have been attracted by this place full of Oriental culture. in this film, there are two prominent Hong Kong actors, Wang minde and Li ruotong, who play Hong Kong police officers. Although they don't play much part in the film, they all have distinctive personalities and are quite glorious.
