Gen - X Cops (1999) 特警新人類 Director: Benny Chan Starring: Nicholas Tse, Stephen Fung, Sam Lee, Grace Ip A fun actioner with lots of brilliant comedy courtesy of actor Sam Lee. If the surprisingly good fight scenes don't appeal to you, perhaps the three young men's hilarious interaction will. GEN-X COPS, which cost a total of HK$30 million, boasts an impressive line-up of talent both behind and in front of the camera - Jackie Chan as executive producer, Benny Chan who directed "WHO AM I?" as director, Hollywood special effects genius Joe Viskocil, who won an Oscar for 'Independence Day', provided the movie's explosive climax, plus pop idols Nicholas Tse, Stephen Fung and Sam Lee as the leads. The explosive mixture of drama, vehicle stunts and physical action is displayed within the structure of a taut, Hollywood-style story. It happens in 1999 Hong Kong. As the millennium approaches, the city is increasingly enveloped by a mixed sentiment of eager expectation and inexplicable fear. The territory's top-rank public enemy, Daniel, takes the opportunity to engage vast numbers of thrill-seeking youngsters to run his illegal arms trading syndicate. Smart Chan, in his effort to combat Daniel, recruits three young police academy dropouts, Jack, Match and Alien, to form a special squad code-named 'Gen-X Cops'. The Gen-X cops soon infiltrate Daniel's arms-smuggling circuit and, to their surprise, discover Daniel is no ordinary arms smuggler but a secret agent implementing a much bigger political conspiracy.
