Like all the best people, CraveOnline loves Andy Lau. The international superstar who headlined such great films as Infernal Affairs, The House of Flying Daggers, Running on Karma and Fulltime Killer is back with the new thriller Firestorm, so we’re especially happy to premiere this exclusive clip of Andy Lau in action. Firestorm stars Lau as a police inspector tasked with taking down a violent gang of armored car hijackers, but who soon discovers that playing it by the book won’t cut it. He’ll have to take the fight to the streets… or, in this case of this CraveOnline exclusive clip, the staircase, which Andy Lau hits hard.
Firestorm premieres on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital on September 23, 2014.
From the Press Release:
Synopsis:
A storm is heading toward the city of Hong Kong, threatening the lives of everyone in its path. As citizens scramble for cover, a crew of seasoned criminals stage a series of armored car heists in broad daylight, showing no mercy to anyone who gets in their way. Hardboiled police inspector Cao Nam (Andy Lau) has had enough. He vows to take back his city, but quickly learns that regular police tactics are no match for the thieves’ unmerciful brutality. The more Nam pursues them, the more unhinged he becomes – and the savage confrontation brewing in the streets may leave an aftermath even more horrifying than the devastating effects of nature itself.
