VIDEO: PTU (Police Tactical Unit)

PTU
Police Tactical Unit
R6 DVD
S$6.80
Directed by Johnnie To
Starring Simon Yam & Maggie Siu

This multiple award winning film, set in the streets of HongKong, talks about a police officer, Sergeant Lo Sa (Lam Suet), who lost his pistol and tries to retrieve it with the aid of PTU Sergeant Mike Ho (Simon Yam), who happened to be the patrol unit for that evening. The whole event took place within an evening before Sgt. Mike Ho's patrol shift ends.

An extremely well-directed film by Johnnie To, who made "PTU" into a piece of art. Definitely the best HongKong film that I have ever watched! Since watching it during a film festival in Melbourne, Australia, I have been looking for this movie on the DVD. Alas, found it at a damn good price, not to mention the good quality and pristine dubbing.
