Z Storm (2014/Well Go USA Blu-ray)

Picture: B Sound: B Extras: B Film: B+



Hong Kong a utopia for business and mass marketing, but also for corruption, greed and money laundering. Chief Luk and his men work for the anti-corruption task force, but when the source of the corruption leads back to their own and their own government and leaders will they be able to take them down? Those in power will do anything to stop them from discovering the truth.

In Davin Lam's Z Storm (2014), Chief Luk leads the ICAC (Independent Commission Against Corruption), a task force created to seek out corruption within the government and economy. However, the mysterious Z Hedge Fund is about to go through in 5 days, worth billions of dollars worth of investments for the Hong Kong economy. Through bribery, blackmail and assassinations, officials and even cops are used to make sure deal to go through. It seems like who ever is behind Z Hedge, to them, million dollar bribes are pocket change and have already bought the upper echelons of the government and the police force.

How far is one willing to go for justice? Are you willing to fight those who might be your own boss? In the future it is not about guns, drugs, even resources, it is about control of money and information and power. Companies, government and people can be bought and the only ones who can stop them are the ICAC.


The 1080p 2.35 X 1 digital High Definition widescreen image is a digital shoot with solid, consistent results, though it has minor detail issues, while the lossless, Cantonese DTS-HD MA (Master Audio) 5.1 mix has a consistent soundfield, but can be more dialogue-based at times than you might expect. Extras include interviews, making of the movie and trailers.
