Synopsis

Fiction mixes with fact in this gambling epic, inspired by the life of Macau's "Casino King" Stanley Ho. Andy Lau is in his element as the tycoon of the title, tracing his blood-splattered fight to the top and spanning the 1930s to the 1960s. The women who cross his path include two of the most beautiful leading ladies of the 1990s, Joey Wang Jo-yin and Chingmy Yau Shuk-ching. The combination of action, romance, and gambling - and Andy Lau – was irresistible to local audiences, and proved a resounding Chinese New Years hit in 1992, the very height of the last great golden age of Hong Kong cinema.
