“In the fires of war, no one is a bystander.” Well Go USA has revealed an international teaser trailer for a Hong Kong action thriller film called Customs Frontline, made by filmmaker Herman Yau. This recently premiered at the 2024 Far East Film Festival in Italy, and will open in China & HK later in June. It’s set to arrive in US theaters a few weeks later in July – for anyone who wants to catch this. Hong Kong customs officers discover an illegal weapons cache on a cargo ship and trace them back to an international conflict. Elite agents go undercover, and uncover a dangerous operation with roots closer to home. A container ship appears in Hong Kong waters and the customs officers board to inspect it. The team, which includes hotshot Chow Ching-lai soon discovers the crew dead and a huge pile of weapons, including an extremely valuable compass suitable for piloting a submarine. The officers don’t know it yet, but an international incident is about to blow up (literally). Customs Frontline stars Jacky Cheung & Nicholas Tse, with Karena Lam, Francis Ng, and Liu Yase. There’s so many explosions in this trailer, even Michael Bay is jealous. Damn.
