Okay, here is a plot summary for the movie "怒火重案" (Fire of Fury), also known as "Rage," in English:
Plot Summary:
"Fire of Fury" centers on a veteran Hong Kong police officer named "Fingers" So (So Cheung-ting). Known for his exceptional marksmanship and ruthless efficiency, Fingers is a highly respected but isolated figure within the force. He has spent years working intensely on counter-terrorism and elite units, living a life filled with stress and little personal connection.
The story kicks off when a highly explosive and technologically advanced IED (Improvised Explosive Device) is planted on a busy MTR (Mass Transit Railway) platform in Hong Kong, threatening to cause a catastrophic disaster. The situation is made even more complex by the presence of a hostage – a young woman named Wing (Wing Shu) – who is caught in the middle.
Fingers is assigned to lead the delicate operation to defuse the bomb and rescue the hostage. He is joined by a no-nonsense, by-the-book police sergeant named Ah Keung (Lee Siu-kei), who provides tactical support and ground control. Working alongside them is a young, eager bomb disposal expert.
The high-pressure mission forces Fingers to confront his own demons. His intense focus, honed by years of combat, is both an asset and a potential liability in the complex social and psychological chess game that defusing a bomb often becomes. He must navigate the ticking clock, the potential for disaster, and the complex dynamics between the police, the hostage, and the likely bomber, who may have motivations extending beyond simple terrorism.
The film is a tense, action-packed thriller that emphasizes the skill, pressure, and psychological toll of bomb disposal work, showcasing intense shootouts, close calls, and the strategic thinking required to neutralize such dangerous situations. It explores themes of trauma, isolation, redemption, and the human element behind the Badge.
