A film with Michelle Yeoh made fairly early in her career. She receives top billing but is more like a supporting or featured player. It does appear that she is doing a lot of her own stunts and she is a rather undeniable film presence.
This is what I would call a typical over the top Hong Kong action film. The title Wonder Seven refers to a team of undercover police agents who race around on motorcycles fighting crime. The plot has something to do with a computer chip which the bad guys are trying to steal for some reason which I was never really sure about. There's lots of shooting and improbable motorcycle stunts and some good action in a Hong Kong high rise that's a little reminiscent of Die Hard's office building action.
The whole thing is made with a lot of skill and there's no denying that it's action packed although at the expense of any kind of coherent plot or deep characterization, this film is for the undemanding action movie fan for the most part.
The running time is 90 minutes, the writers were, Tan Cheung, Siu-Tung Ching and Elsa Tang.
