Island Of Fire (1990)

Star studded Hong Kong action movie produced by the legendary Jimmy Wang Yu. Although Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Andy Lau are top billed on the advertising their roles are more like extended
cameo's with Tony Leung Ka-fai the real star of the show.
 Sent undercover into one of Hong Kong's most brutal prisons to expose the corruption and brutality policeman Leung faces the usual for this type of movie, organised fights, vicious guards, a despot warden, etc.
 Chan has a couple of decent fight scenes, Hung provides the sentimentality as the repeat escapee missing his son and Lau plays against type as the local gang boss.
 Tipping it's hat to Cool Hand Luke in a couple of scenes it moves along at a fair pace and is certainly better than many similar movies in this genre. Recommended.
