Title:
Infernal Affairs 2
Synopsis:
Set between the years 1991 and 1997, this second installment begins 10 years before the events of Infernal Affairs. The young Yan and Ming (played here by Shawn Yue and Edison Chen respectively), are just starting out in their roles as police stooge and triad mole.
The story begins in a police station where Inspector Wong (Anthony Wong) and Sam (Eric Tsang) bitter enemies from the first film behave like old friends. Yan is embroiled in the family saga of a triad cartel inextricably tied to his origins, while Ming is enmeshed in an oedipal fixation with his boss’s wife.
Expanding considerably upon the now legendary original, this acclaimed prequel develops the mythic feel of the saga. Friendships fracture. Foes join forces. And nothing is as it appears to be.
