A dying cop (Simon Yam) is desperate to take down a mob boss (Sammo Hung) before he is forced into retirement. He is supposed to turn over his team to an incoming go-getter (Donnie Yen) but keeps side-stepping to enact a rougher form of justice.
The plot is just shy of nonsensical and mostly serves to string together action sequences, of which there are many and awesome. Donnie Yen is obviously the modern big name but Sammo Hung is an OG and absolutely whips ass here.
(BTW, this is the sluttiest role Donnie Yen has ever played. Whoever in the costume department decided he should do the final fight in a shirt with only one button deserves a gift basket. Like a really nice one. And a gourmet chocolate assortment for that white tank. Mwah!)
If you're trying to catch up on Yen's back filmography or just want something kind of dumb but action heavy to lull you while you're processing your turkey leftovers coma/Black Friday bruises, Kill Zone is streaming on Tubi. Just drink water every time there's a commercial break.
