Plot: Celerity
cook Brisket (Jordan Chan) is known for his culinary
sleight of hand, but hardly anyone realizes he used to
be a young and dangerous slayer who cut human flesh rather
than poultry meat. Now a family man who strives to be
caring father, he finds his idyllic life turned topsy-turvy
when his Triad mentor comes out of nowhere and commands
him to run for the “Dragon Head” in the underworld.
Brisket’s
only chance to extricate himself from this quagmire is
to lose the election to another candidate called Sparrow
(Ekin Cheng), who supposedly is the designated heir to
the previous kingpin. Ironically enough, Sparrow has
found his true calling in academia while serving his
term in prison. He has set his mind to getting into the
best university in Hong Kong rather than re-donning his
Triad cloak.
While
these two reluctant candidates are racking their brains
to outwit each other so that they can stay out of the
race, their inglorious pasts eventually caught up with
them as their followers are plunged in to mayhem and
bloodshed on pain of death to get their respective leaders
onto the throne…
