Bullet In The Head is infused with all of John Woo's (Face/Off and Mission: Impossible II) cinematic trademarks - gun battles laced with romanticism, friendship and loyalty. Three childhood friends Ben (Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Hero and In The Mood For Love), Frank (Jacky Cheung) and Paul (Waise Lee) fight to prove their places in two riotous worlds - the uprising-ridden Hong Kong and Viet Cong-infested Saigon in the 1960's. They run into bloody troubles with ruthless gangs, corrupt militia and eventually against each other.
