Poon Shing Fung (Andy Lau) is one of the Hong Kong police force’s most brilliant bomb disposal. When he and his team discover a deadly device at a public site, the stakes are high. Despite his team’s efforts to defuse the device, it detonates, leaving him with crippling injuries. Distraught, he leaves the force.

But several years later, a gang of terrorist bombers named Vendetta is on the loose. When the police find Poon Shing Fung unconscious at the site of a Vendetta attack, they investigate, suspecting him of turning terrorist and joining the group. But Poon Shing Fung’s memory has been badly affected by the blast – he cannot clearly recall if he is indeed a member of Vendetta or an undercover cop trying to take the organization down. He also cannot remember his years as a police officer. What ensues is a deadly battle between police officers – including Pong Ling (Ni Ni), Poon Shing Fung’s ex-girlfriend and the head of the Counter-Terrorism Response Unit and his former bomb disposal partner Tung Cheuk Man (Sean Lau) – and the terrorists. When Vendetta hatches a plan to detonate a small nuclear-powered device named Davy Crockett in the city, this trio might be Hong Kong’s only hope of salvation. But where do Poon Shing Fung’s loyalties really lie?
