The tight, tense cop thriller showcased two of Hong Kong's top actors as a pair of dueling moles: corrupt police inspector Ming (Andy Lau), informing for a criminal gang; and Yan (Tony Leung), an undercover cop who had infiltrated the same triads.

When Tung abruptly backed off from Article 23, and again when he accepted the resignations of Security Secretary Regina Ip and Financial Secretary Antony Leung, China's leaders were further exasperated?but continue to see no alternative to Tung...
