Raging Fire is Benny Chan's last film, and it's a pretty good one. Nicholas Tse is a cop whose team went to far and wound up in jail. Now they're out and looking for revenge against those who betrayed them, including a supercop who refuses to play politics played by the always dependable Donnie Yen. The action is brutal, Tse is clearly having a lot of fun playing a psychopath with nothing to lose, and Yen is, as always, the heart of the picture. Hiding things in flashbacks is initially a little confusing, but we're quickly caught up and racing along with the cop vs. cop story. Layered into what is essentially a standard action plot is the theme of destiny, Tse and Yen representing two paths taken from a crucial event, two men purportedly the same until that moment. The question is asked and I have to answer that no, these two men were NOT the same, and their end points are the product of something innate to each of them, but you may come to a different conclusion.
