The night starts like any other as PTU sergeant Mike (Simon Yam) and his squad begin their patrol. They come across Officer Lo (Lam Suet) who was beaten up in the streets by triads, and woke up to find his gun is missing. Afraid of disciplinary action, Lo desperately asks Mike for help recovering his gun before daybreak. While Mike and his team sweep the midnight haunts and usual suspects for leads, a gang war slowly breaks out on the streets over the murder of triad leader Bald Head's (Lo Hoi Pang) son. As the night unfolds, threads cross, events escalate, and the line between cop and crook blurs as all sides draw blood for the same reason: protecting their own. (texto oficial de la distribuidora)

Even though Johnnie To started out as a director in the 1980s, it was not until the turn of the millennium that he had developed his distinctive signature style and became Hong Kong’s leading directorial star. PTU: Police Tactical Unit shows the master in top form with all of the typical attributes that not only brought him acclaim at home, but also made him a darling of the biggest international festivals. The loss of a service pistol kicks off a fiendishly unpredictable narrative in which, over the course of a single night, officers from various departments – ranging from beat cops to internal affairs investigators – repeatedly toe the thin blue line separating enforcers of the law from criminals. With the darkly humorous and brilliantly paced screenplay by the masters of vicious coincidence, Yau Nai-hoi and Au Kin-yee, Johnnie To made an ultra-stylish spectacle that is captivating due to the inventive staging of the individual scenes.
