Drug War (2012) - 110 min

Drug War (Chinese: Du zhan) is a Chinese-Hong Kong crime thriller film directed Johnnie To.
Starring Sun Honglei, Louis Koo, Huang Yi & Wallace Chung.
It tells the story of the uneasy partnership between Anti-Drug Unit police officer Zhang Lei and drug lord turned rat, Tin-ming Choi. Facing the death penalty on drug charges, Choi bargains with Zhang, offering up the entire regional drug network in exchange for a reduced sentence.
The background score and the climax scenes were outstanding. The film's midsection seems to be kind of slow pace which makes it a little dim. Otherwise, it could have been a better film. Overall, it's a watchable movie with some heavy gun shots towards the end.
Verdict: Average
