Synopsis
The Goldfinger (2023) is a Hong Kong crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. Set during the stock-market boom of late-1970s and 1980s Hong Kong, it follows anti-corruption investigator Lau as he spends years chasing a man who turned a shell company into a financial empire built on fraud and dirty deals.
At its heart is the pairing of Tony Leung Chiu-Wai and Andy Lau, sharing the screen for the first time since Infernal Affairs. One spins a dizzying con, the other tries to unravel it, and their duel stretches across more than a decade. The story draws on a notorious financial scandal, directed by Felix Chong — co-writer of Infernal Affairs.
The film leans on the scale of the swindle and the wattage of its two leads rather than on gunfights. A solid pick if you like tales of greed and big money in the vein of The Wolf of Wall Street, told Hong Kong style. Stream The Goldfinger (2023) online on iFILM.
