some questions (spoilers)


1. why did daniel use drugs in the end?
2. i thought he was going to keep being undercover, why was he a cop in the end?
3. who started drugs first, jane or louis?

reply

1. Daniel used drugs because he was tired to asking himself "Why did people use drugs?" I believe it was his first time using a hard drug like heroin.

2. I thought that he was gonna go undercover too, but I guess that you can only be "undercover" for so long before people start labeling you as an informant after busting Louis.

3. I don't know, but I think you're missing the point. I think the most important point was that the film was trying to emphasize how people can think that heroin can be easy to quit but it actually isn't. It's true, and no one uses it recreationally and it's very hard to quit without rehab or medication.

I could be wrong, but I hope that helps a little.

1. maybe he experienced the emptiness that drove people to take drugs

2. he's just waering the uniform la

3. the point was made by Andy Lau that the junkies are irrational and can come up with all sorts of sob stories to make you feel sorry for them. so the audience won't really know who was telling the truth, or if both are lying

but daniel never took the drugs. He was about to take but then the litte girl interveined. If he would have taken the drugs then he would have fallen down on his couch on some sort of shock seeing it would be his first drug use, and not stand there and hug the little girl. He didn't do drugs in the end.

He didn't join the force after his job with andy was done. He even says to those police chiefs that he doesn't want to be a cop now that he has practically been a drug dealer in his whole life. He even says that whenever he sees a cop he feels like running away. I think he put on his cop suit to just feel how it would be being a cop.

About the third question, Limyow summons everything about right.

Basically the little girl saved him in the end. He realized he is not alone and his life has a purpose.
