About The Sting
Simon Tam, "The Sting", has learnt some Chinese traditional skill from his master. To avoid misfortunes he has not accepted any business for 5 years. Now Simon is being employed to protect an accountant Law, but Law dies mysteriously. Law's legacy, 300 million dollars, which attracts the attention of a smuggling syndicate, is missing. This leads to a 300 million dollar big chase which Simon is involved inside.
Directed by Nico Wong Man-Wan, The Sting leans on a strong ensemble — Andy Lau, Simon Lui Yu-Yeung, Rosamund Kwan Chi-Lam — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1992.
