The Mission

“Five men. They appreciate each other's guts and wisdom, and they are always perfect partners in missions. But now, they'll have to hold their pistols at each other...”

Curtis (Anthony Wong Chau-sang) is a hired killer in Hong Kong, brought in with four others to guard Lung, a triad boss who has just survived an assassination attempt. Johnnie To puts Roy (Francis Ng Chun-yu), Shin (Jackie Lui Chung-yin), Mike (Roy Cheung Yiu-yeung) and James (Lam Suet) next to Curtis, men who know their trade and have no history of working as a team. Whatever loyalty exists between them has to be built from nothing, one shift at a time.
