Tung/Torres, a vicious Filipino-Chinese drug dealer in Hong Kong, is caught by Chief Inspector Leung. Cynthia and Lung is tasked to deport him back to the Philippines for prosecution. But once they arrive, Dion is rescued by his boss/godfather, Tiger, leaving Cyntha and Lung with more than their responsibility to deal with Sgt. Franco, their Manila counterpart. Tiger, the coldly ambitious leader of the local gang, who builds an empire of crimes in Manila, has determined to eliminate anyone who will hinder his way of making money. They include Lung and Cynthia, Sgt. Franco and his partner, Billy, and Tiger's rival gang leader Mr. Tang. Between Lung and Sgt. Franco, it is a case of conflict at first sight; However, when Billy and Cynthia are brutally killed in the line of duty by the deadliest killers sent by Tung and Tiger, Lung and Franco finally get together and will stop at nothing to launch a mission against the baron and to fight for justice with unexpectedly violent results.

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.
