Chow Yun-Fat is Nick Chen, a severe New York Chinatown cop who is having a tough time keeping peace on the streets after a turf war breaks out between the triads and a street gang. Mark Wahlberg is Danny Wallace, another cop brought in to help with the peacekeeping effort. When he realizes that Chen's ties to the criminals go even deeper than he suspected, things get very violent and complicated. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)

Compared to his Hollywood debut, The Replacement Killers, Chow Yun-fat’s second American film is an enjoyable step in the right direction, but it’s still not the real deal. Whereas The Replacement Killers was spectacularly filmed fluff, The Corruptor has a real screenplay and the story of the complicated friendship between an honest rookie cop (Mark Wahlberg) and a ruthless dirty cop (Yun-fat) is compelling. Though the plot is full of holes, the bleak atmosphere of the dirty big-city streets and the dramatic potential successfully pull it together. Training Day, a later thriller paradoxically made by the director of The Replacement Killers, has an essentially identical subject, but polished to perfection.

I found this nineties movie more entertaining now than I did back then. With a decent screenplay and a couple of breakneck twists, Chow Yun-Fat and a young Wahlberg keep its head above water. Foley doesn’t show off much here. Nudity and rivers of blood, as expected, action not good not bad, but a couple of moments are really satisfying. Old school.
