Beautifully restored in 4K from the original negative, 2026's first QFT Late is Ringo Lam's electrifying Hong Kong thriller City on Fire.
Ko (Chow Yun-fat) is an undercover cop on one last job, assigned to infiltrate a gang of jewel thieves committing armed robberies across Hong Kong. When another police officer is killed in the line of duty during one of the gang's heists, Ko finds himself caught in the crossfire between the police force desperate to catch the culprits at any cost, and the trigger-happy thieves who begin to smell a rat in their midst. As the bullets fly and the body count rises, Ko's only hope for survival might be his burgeoning friendship with weary gang member Fu (Danny Lee).
Set against the neon-soaked jewellery stores and gritty backstreets of Hong Kong, City on Fire delivers high-octane action, frantic heists and gun standoffs. The film that cemented Chow Yun-fat's reputation as Hong Kong’s hottest new action film megastar, City on Fire also influenced filmmakers worldwide, most notably inspiring Quentin Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs.
