Starring Sean Lau, Louis Koo and Angelica Lee, the movie is about a fire that engulfs a highrise building in southern China and the subsequent rescue mission by the citys fire department.
The Pang Brothers went to great lengths to ensure authenticity of the fire scenes, actual fire was used for the majority of the film to bring out the actual visceral fear from the cast. The film had a budget of HK150 million US19 million.Yvonne Teh of the South China Morning Post gave the film three out of five stars. Teh stated that the script looks a clear case of too many cooks spoiling the broth and that Szeto Kamyuens death had harmed it. Teh stated that the acting of Koo, Lau, and Lee benefited the film and that the raging fire, which hisses, roars, and moves in ways that resembles a mythical, dragonlike creature at times, is suitably menacing, and ensures that there are scenes in this action thriller that do feel suspenseful. Teh argued that the film is weakest when the attention is focused on hackneyed minor characters with the diamond cutter characters being the lamest of all. ........
