<\/a><\/p>\nSammo Hung, who returns to the director\u2019s chair after almost 20 years, stars as Ding, a retired Central Security Bureau member who has settled in a city somewhere near the China-Russia border. Estranged from his family and trying to live a quiet life while facing the onset of Alzheimer\u2019s, he befriends a young girl (Jacqueline Chan), who is threatened when her hard-drinking gambler father (a scene-stealing Andy Lau) gets wrapped up with a local crime boss (Feng Jiayi). Soon enough, the girl disappears and Ding has to dust off his very specific set of skills to save her life. Filled with more cameos than you could shake a staff at, The Bodyguard is more a melodramatic examination of a life filled with regret and disappearing memories due to the ravages of time than a bone-breaking action film\u2014but Sammo can still break bones when he needs to. Presented with the support of Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in New York.<\/p>\n
