Furious Attack
The brief
Yi Huang cranks out a lean, mean rescue thriller that hits all the expected beats without much surprise but keeps things moving at a relentless clip. Andy On brings his usual physical intensity to the vengeful father role, and the Myanmar setting adds some gritty authenticity to what could have been another generic action slog. At 77 minutes, it doesn't overstay its welcome or pretend to be deeper than it is - just straight-ahead bone-crunching with a clear mission. Perfect for fans of no-nonsense Asian action like "The Raid" or anyone who wants their revenge thrillers served fast and without filler.
The verdict
If you crave no-nonsense Asian action with relentless pacing and bone-crunching intensity, this 77-minute rescue thriller delivers exactly what it promises without wasting a single minute. If you need unpredictable plots or emotional depth beyond straightforward vengeance, you'll find this too lean and formulaic to satisfy.
