Hard Boiled" is for many John Woo's finest film. The action movie director has a unique talent whereby he's able to blend ridiculous over-the-top violence and gunplay in such a way that the visual carnage takes on an almost ballet-style gracefulness. This is certainly the case with Midway's "sequel" videogame to the hit Hong Kong action flick. Stranglehold has got it all: guns, bullets, murder, crime lords, exotic locales and doves. Doves? Yes, doves, a signature visual treat from the game's main character -- Inspector Tequila -- played expertly both on-screen and in-game by Chow Yun Fat.
a very nice looking 3rd person shooter
I advise people looking into this game to rent it first.Its a fun game but its basically the same thing all they way through the campaign,run/shoot/aim/run/sho ot. Theres not much of a plot to it other than running and shooting.I rented this game for my 360 and after about 3 days i was pretty much bored with it, i was damn glad i rented it.
