And yet, much like HK’s other trash auteur Wong Jing, he continually manages to draw top tier talent to his films. Take a look at “Fatal Move’s” star-studded cast: Sammo Hung, Simon Yam, Danny Lee, Wu Jing.

These are some of the biggest names in Hong Kong. The film also features supporting turns from several actors who have become synonymous with the cops ‘n Triads genre: Eddie Cheung, Ken Lo, and Milkyway veterans like Lam Seut and Hui Siu.

One would think that for a director to nab such A-list players, he himself would have to exude vision as a filmmaker. But time and time again, Dennis Law flounders behind the camera. Both this film and Law’s 2010 effort “” follow the same general plot: a Triad organization is tearing itself apart from the inside due to money-grubbing and betrayal.

The story is almost impossible to follow beyond this most basic thread. Sammo Hung plays the head of the Triad – a calm and fatherly man who can also order an execution as nonchalantly as if he was asking for tea. The presence of Sammo, Simon Yam, and Wu Jing in a Triad setting makes “Fatal Move” feel something like a spiritual successor to 2005’s excellent “” (AKA “Killzone”). Derek Yee actually began writing the script as a prequel to “SPL,” which would have depicted Sammo’s character’s rise to power. He eventually scrapped the idea when it proved limiting but the story he came up instead with is almost too mundane to be committed to celluloid. Without Donnie Yen onscreen or Wilson Yip handling directorial duties, “Fatal Move” pales in comparison to its companion film. This movie is characterized by long, drawn out dialogue scenes that go nowhere; constant under-acting; and bland camera set-ups.

The film is curiously underscored: too many scenes are filled with awkward silences as the actors look at each other or painfully wait for their next dialogue beat. Then again, what music is here is pretty generic and awful sounding, so whether there’s crickets behind Simon Yam’s flat performance or a generic electronic drumbeat, the audience still suffers. Of course, it would be a lot easier to forgive bland dialogue and lifeless acting in a Triad movie if the action scenes delivered. And the action in “Fatal Move,” choreographed by Nicky Li Chung of the Jackie Chan Stunt Team, is actually quite good. Chung previously directed the action on movies like “” and “,” not to mention “Rush Hour” and “” However, here more so than in any other Hong Kong movie I can recall, the action is undermined by an excessive use of computer-generated effects.

So while it’s awesome to see Wu Jing charge into a gang battle with a samurai sword and start hacking off people’s limbs left and right, the fact that everything looks so digital takes away from the impact. “Fatal Move” is a bloody movie, there’s no doubt about that, but more than 90% of the blood is CGI. The standout scene in “Fatal Move” occurs at around the half-way mark, when up-and-coming actor Jacky Heung (“Fearless,” ““) leaps from an overpass and lands on top of a car to engage in one of the most brutal Triad assassinations ever captured on film. Dressed in a frilly white jacket and wielding some kind of deadly axe-boomerang, Jacky Heung makes for a fierce killer, despite the fact that he’s obviously doubled at most points. It’s a scene-stealing moment with great choreography that doesn’t rely too much on special effects. If only the rest of the movie had this same kinetic energy. The film ends with a one-on-one battle between Sammo Hung and Wu Jing, the only fight that Sammo has the entire movie.
