The Moon Thieves (2024)
Loi Bo Watch Company, Hong Kong's esteemed watch boutique, conceals a thrilling secret—it serves as the epicentre for stolen timepieces. Under the icy command of Uncle (Keung To), a fearless crew assembles: an audacious thief (Louis Cheung), explosive specialist (Michael Ning), lock-picking prodigy (Anson Lo), and watch connoisseur (Edan Lui). Their target? Tokyo, where they plan to heist three ultra-luxury watches.
In the cloak of shadows, their mission takes an electrifying twist as they chance upon the 'Moonwatch,' the iconic timepiece that once graced the lunar surface. A spontaneous decision triggers a relentless pursuit by the henchmen of a furious Japanese tycoon. Racing against exposure, the team unites, navigating the chaos to safeguard their very lives. Will they triumph in this pulse-pounding escapade?
