The game is super repetitive, the way they increase difficulty later in the game is make enemies bullet sponges, bosses are also bullet sponges but you can tell they love John Woo movies and tried to make something faithful to them. It would however feel more authentic in Cantonese. The comparisons to Max Payne are inevitable but the way you can move on railings and swing from chandeliers etc. and the special abilities differentiate the gameplay.

It's too bad the coolest level comes fairly early where you go in a restaurant carrying guitar cases and a jazz band plays while you have a shoot-out. After that it feels like a bit of a slog.

Recommended for John Woo fans.
