Touted as Hong Kong's Mission: Impossible with Hollywood-grade action, Line Walker 2 Invisible Spy has been getting rave reviews and filling cinema halls in China. This reboot sequel reportedly already raked in RMB172mil (RM102mil) on its opening day (Aug 7) in China, with many netizens heaping praise on the depth of brotherly love (between the character's portrayed by Nick Cheung and Louis Koo) as well as the daring action scenes.
The story revolves around the beloved Chinese concept of brotherhood between childhood friends who lost contact after one of them gets kidnapped by a crime syndicate and ends up being planted as a mole in the police force. The first Line Walker (2016) movie was shot at a dangerous drug enclave in Brazil.
