2012, Movie, 1h 47min

Manufacturing just fifty grams of meth in China will earn you a death sentence. Timmy Choi (Louis Koo) just got caught making tons. Now he’s in the custody of Captain Zhang (Sun Honglei) and has one chance to avoid execution—turn informant and help the cops bring down the powerful cartel he’s been cooking for. Over the next seventy-two sleepless hours, the sting spins out of control, the line between duty and recklessness is blurred, and it becomes unclear who has the upper hand. From Johnnie To, master of the Hong Kong crime thriller, comes a scary thrill ride through the modern criminal underworld.
