People's Hero

Directed by Derek Yee Tung-Sing

With Ti Lung, Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Tony Leung Ka-fai, Elaine Jin Yan-Ling and Paul Chun Pui

Ex-gangster Sonny Koo finds himself in the middle of a bank holdup by two inexperienced crooks. The robbery goes awry, but before order can be restored, Sonny assumes control. He proceeds to turn the hostage situation to his advantage, and uses the bank's customers and personnel as leverage to free his girlfriend from prison. On the outside, sympathetic cop Captain Chan debates with his captain over how to handle the situation.
