Catch

The story of the action comedy revolves around corruption, Taipei gangs, short-lived celebrities and tabloid press. The main protagonist is Gene, whom the police send to infiltrate one of the gangs just when the mysterious and masterful Alpha announces his comeback to crime. Other gangs step in along with the tabloid press, which starts to take interest in the life of gangsters. Current Taiwan is thus reflected in an entertaining, funny film, which has broken local popularity records. Fighting action is not only a way to entertain the audience, but also a attempt to reflect the society in a modern way.
