Tiger on the Beat (老虎出更)
MISMATCHED COPS, PERFECT CHAOS.
In the bustling streets of Hong Kong, a veteran cop with a lazy streak is reluctantly paired with an eager rookie whose enthusiasm far outweighs his experience. When a routine case pulls them into a deadly drug-smuggling ring, the mismatched duo is forced to navigate explosive shootouts, chaotic chases, and their own clashing personalities. As the stakes rise, they must learn to trust each other long enough to take down a ruthless crime syndicate—leading to an uproarious mix of high-energy action and offbeat comedy.
This legendary 1988 action-comedy starring Chow Yun-Fat and directed by Lau Kar-Leung remains a beloved classic of Hong Kong cinema.
For most of the world, this is the first opportunity to see the new 4K restoration—a digital exclusive to Letterboxd at launch.
