Overview

English Summary:

"Hard Boiled" (Chinese: 辣手神探) is a 1992 Hong Kong action-thriller film directed by John Woo, known for his signature "bullet ballet" style of action sequences. Written by Barry Wong, the film stars Chow Yun-fat as Inspector "Tequila" Yuen, Tony Leung Chiu-Wai as Alan (an undercover cop), and Anthony Wong as Johnny Wong, a ruthless Triad leader.

The story begins in a teahouse in Hong Kong, where Inspector "Tequila" Yuen and Benny Mak attempt to take down a group of gun smugglers. A violent ambush by a rival gang results in a fierce gun battle, leaving Benny dead and several officers injured. Tequila, enraged by Benny's death, executes the gangster responsible, which causes tension with his superintendent, Pang, who needed the gangster alive to testify. Tequila is subsequently removed from the case.

Meanwhile, Alan, an assassin working for Triad boss "Uncle" Hoi, is reluctantly recruited by Johnny Wong. Wong seeks to dominate the arms trade and eliminate the old Triad bosses. Alan is ordered to raid Hoi's warehouse, resulting in Hoi's death and the loss of his men. In the chaos that follows, Tequila launches an attack on Wong's men, during which Alan spares Tequila's life. The two eventually team up to uncover a secret arms operation hidden in a hospital and bring down the crime syndicate.

Összefoglaló

Hard Boiled (1992) egy John Woo által rendezett hongkongi akcióthriller, amely híres a látványos "bullet ballet" jeleneteiről. Chow Yun-fat alakítja Tequila Yuen felügyelőt, Tony Leung Chiu-Wai az álruhás rendőr Alant, míg Anthony Wong a kegyetlen triádvezér Johnny Wongot.

A történet egy hongkongi teaházban kezdődik, ahol Tequila és Benny fegyvercsempészekre csap le. A rajtaütés brutális tűzharcba torkollik, Benny meghal, Tequila pedig bosszúból kivégez egy gengsztert, ami feszültséget okoz a rendőrségen belül.

Közben az álruhás Alan, aki eddig "Uncle" Hoi triádvezérnek dolgozott, kénytelen csatlakozni Johnny Wonghoz, aki át akarja venni a hongkongi fegyverkereskedelem felett az uralmat. Wong emberei kiiktatják Hoit, ám a káosz közepette Alan életben hagyja Tequilát. Később a két férfi szövetségre lép, hogy leleplezzenek egy titkos fegyverraktárt egy kórházban és leszámoljanak a bűnszervezettel.

故事从香港一家茶馆开始，探长阿祖和警官阿Benny试图逮捕一群枪支走私者，但遭到敌对帮派伏击，引发了一场激烈的枪战。虽然黑帮分子被击败，但阿Benny不幸身亡，其他警察也受了重伤。愤怒的阿祖杀死了凶手，却因此被其上司庞警官撤下案件，因为庞需要这名黑帮分子活着作证。

与此同时，卧底警察阿伦受命潜入三合会头目“叔父”海的手下，但被黄志强招募。黄志强试图通过控制非法武器交易来取代传统三合会领导人。在一次针对海的仓库的袭击中，阿伦被迫杀死海及其手下。随后阿祖袭击了黄志强的手下，混乱中阿伦放过了阿祖一命。最终，阿祖和阿伦联手揭露隐藏在医院的秘密武器库，并摧毁犯罪组织。
