About Buttonman
Wei is “Button man”, an expert cleaner for the Chinese Mafia, a man who arrives after a murder, takes care of the victim, disposing the body and leaves no evidence behind. Who would have thought one day, he would become a target of their list. (Mei Ah)
Directed by Joe Chien Jen-Hao, Buttonman leans on a strong ensemble — Francis Ng Chun-Yu, Leon Dai, Terri Kwan Wing — 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 action titles of 2008.
