A police officer has been disgraced in front of both the department and the entire city, and when the sadistic gang that wronged him attempts to cement their grip on the terrified community, the only man who can come to their aid is the one nobody believes in anymore as the long-running Police Story saga receives an exciting breath of fresh-air from director Benny Chan. Police Inspector Wing (Chan) used to be Hong Kong's top cop, but when his entire team is wiped out by a youthful group of cold-blooded bank robbers, Wing quickly falls into a deep depression. A year after everyone including Wing's fiancée has lost their faith in the fallen police inspector, Wing gets a second shot at glory when he is assigned an ambitious new partner and given the opportunity to bring the gang that nearly destroyed his life to justice. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

The directorial debut from Miguel Santesmases, La Fuente Amerilla (aka The Yellow Fountain) is a romantic thriller that also examines the harsh, often violent realities of life in Spain's Chinese community. Lola (Silvia Abascal) is half-Chinese and half-Spanish and no stranger to misfortune. She watched her mother and father die in an incident with Chinese gangsters, and her boyfriend recently shot himself to death while playing Russian roulette. Lola meets a new beau, a charming but shy young man named Sergio (Eduardo Noriega), and he agrees to help her as she tries to discover the truth about the death of her parents. While Eduardo Noriega here portrays Sergio as a quiet, bookish sort with a speech impediment, in Spain he's a major matinee idol who accepted this role as a chance to play against type. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
