Chan falls under the spell of Lai's beautiful mistress (Chingmy Yau), leading to a terrible betrayal which places Chan and Cheng in mortal danger. However, Chan is forced to act as mediator between the San Luen and Hung Hing triads during fraught negotiations over some lucrative casino properties, while his old friend (Ekin Cheng) is distracted by a turf war with villainous rival Anthony Wong (THE UNTOLD STORY). Whilst hiding out in Taiwan following events in the previous film, Hung Hing triad member Jordan Chan worms his way into the rival San Luen group and endears himself to boss Kelly Lai, who is currently running for high office in the country's parliament. Rushed into theaters mere months after its predecessor unexpectedly hit box-office gold, this superior sequel uses much the same cast and crew (including writer Manfred Wong and director-cinematographer Andrew Lau), to much better effect. YOUNG AND DANGEROUS 2 (Gu Huo Zai 2: Zhi Meng Long Guo Jiang) Reviewed by Libretio 6 / 10 Superior sequel And my eagerness to watch part three has been increased steeply after seeing "Young and Dangerous 2".

The action scenes and sequences in part two was also better executed and the camera action during the action scenes was far superior than in the first movie.Īnd the tone down of action gave way for a really good character build, where you got to know more of the characters and got more submerged into whom they are and why they behaved the way they did.Īll in all, a sequel that is well worth watching for fans of the first movie and fans of Hong Kong cinema in general. I really enjoyed part two way more than part one, despite it having less action than the first movie. And people familiar with the femme fatale movies of Hong Kong cinema will be pleased to see Chingmy Yau in the role of Ting Siu-Yiu. Ekin Cheng and Jordan Chan do it quite well, as they also did it in part one, but the most outstanding performance in part two is without a doubt by Anthony Wong Chau-Sang. But some people are playing more than one side, and it ends up as a complex web of lies, deceit and double-play.Īgain, as in the first one, "Young and Dangerous 2" has an incredible cast, with a great number of familiar faces from part one. Meanwhile Chan Ho Nam (played by Ekin Cheng) and Tai Fai (played by Anthony Wong Chau-Sang) are both competing to become the leader of the Causeway Bay chapter of the Hung Hing group. But this time the story extends to Taipei, Taiwan as well, as Chicken (played by Jordan Chan) becomes hired by the San Luen gang. "Young and Dangerous 2" continues the story of the Hung Hing gang of the Hong Kong triad and their affairs in both Hong Kong and Macau.
Where as the first movie was focused mostly on the action, part two is driven by a deeper and more thought through storyline, and that really made the movie stand out much more than the first one. The first movie was actually quite good, but it is surpassed by this sequel in many ways. Reviewed by paul_haakonsen 7 / 10 Less action than part 1, but a deeper storyline, and as such, a much better movie.
