 * Comment As a general observation, the Hong Kong/China movie landscape is very different from that in the west. There aren't really any film critics or associated websites because all topics are tightly controlled by the authorities. That's why there aren't any "challenging" films made in China, because everyone involved would end up in prison. In short, what this means is that the breadth of movie coverage in Chinese language sources will by definition be significantly lower than that for Western films. Note that Andy Lau, the star of this film, is the equivalent of Brad Pitt and Clint Eastwood rolled into one. While that does not make his films inherently notable, they are at the top of the pile when it comes to Chinese language sources. Philg88 ♦talk 09:00, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep per WP:CSB and meeting the intent of WP:NF through the cogent arguments made by User:Philg88. Major television serial in its part of the world. We do not have realistic expectations that an area with press restriction would have in-depth critical response. More, Andy Lau is a notable, this series is a major part of his career and, forty years later, it has become part of the historic permanent record though book sources.
