Accident (2009 film)

Accident (Chinese: 意外), originally titled Assassins (Chinese: 暗殺), is a 2009 Hong Kong action thriller film directed by Soi Cheang, produced by Johnnie To and starring Louis Koo and Richie Jen.

Accident competed at the 66th Venice International Film Festival, and was released theatrically in Hong Kong on 17 September 2009.

However, it is revealed that the man was actually murdered, with the supposed accident actually orchestrated by a group of killers led by the Brain (Louis Koo).

Uncle (Stanley Fung), one of the team members, accidentally leaves a cigarette butt at the crime scene, and it is found by the Brain.

One day, the Brain trails the client to find the Woman (Michelle Ye) picking up the payment for the job at a parking garage.

Uncle had accidentally dropped a bag of toy balls that night, which led to the loss of control of the bus.

Realizing he has made a mistake and that the agent is innocent, the Brain runs and tries to cover the windshield from reflecting light.

Perry Lam, of Muse magazine, writes, "the movie dutifully fulfills the rules of the genre but offers few incidental pleasures.
