Check out the new trailer for the upcoming Hong Kong action thriller, The Stool Pigeon. The trailer includes subtitles as well which makes it a lot easier to understand the premise of the movie. The Stool Pigeon is directed by Dante Lam (Sniper) and stars Nicholas Tse (Bodyguards and Assassins), Lunmei Kwai, Nick Cheung, and Li Yu. You can check out all the Asian action after the jump.
My thoughts on the trailer: It looks like an average action movie with an above average plot. I also wasn’t expecting to see Nicholas Tse in the film which definitely adds a bit of star power to it. It looks like a decent movie that I would love to watch but it’s something you probably aren’t going to have to rush out and see (even though I would if I could).
Plot Synopsis:
“Senior Inspector Don Lee (Cheung) relies heavily on the information provided by stool pigeons in his job. Barbarian is a painstakingly meticulous armed robber. Don needs an informant to infiltrate his gang so he recruits street-racer Guy (Tse). Guy provides information on Barbarian’s next job, but Don is unable to effectively act on them until the final moment. Since Barbarian has not left any evidence, Don is pressured to convince Guy to become a witness for the prosecution. Don promises to provide Guy with a new identity in another country, but the departure is beset by accidents and Guy only barely makes it to safety. Haunted by his ruined relationships with his ex-wife and former stool pigeons, Don no longer wants to be part of a world that is one betrayal after another.”
