The crime syndicate demands that Cheng Chung-bo lead the way to the treasure trove, holding his family hostage. Booby-trapped, Cheng Fai disengages the device and flees to join Flying Heroine Ma Chau-wan and Detective Wong. Meanwhile, the ingenious scientist Dr Ng is enlisted by the ringleader Ho Kei-ming to match wits and brawn with Fai and Ma. Ma slyly earns the trust of a bewitched Ng, claiming to be Fai's biggest foe. Ng ushers Ma into the headquarters where he meets his doom. With his patience running out, Ho grasps an apprehended Chung-bo on a treasure hunt while the pursuers are diverted from their course. Ma recognises her long-lost father from among the gangsters and brings him to his senses with words of absolution. The father pledges his alliance to the duo in crushing the gang and saving Chung-bo and wife.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
