Synopsis
Shock Wave (拆彈專家, 2017) is a Hong Kong action thriller you can watch online on iFILM, featuring Andy Lau as bomb disposal officer Chun Choisang — a cop who spent seven years undercover inside an explosives ring just to bring one man down.
That man, the gang's leader Hung, survived and has come back to settle the score. His leverage: a network of bombs planted across major public venues and a tunnel packed with hostages. Chun has to outthink a criminal who knows exactly how he operates and who isn't above hitting anything he loves. Director Herman Yau keeps the pressure constant, cutting between tense negotiation scenes and genuinely large-scale set pieces.
Andy Lau anchors the film with the kind of controlled intensity that makes even the more formulaic stretches watchable. If you're after a tightly-wound genre piece from Hong Kong's action tradition, this delivers on its promises. Stream Shock Wave (2017) online on iFILM.
