About This Movie

Those Were the Days dives into the gritty underbelly of Hong Kong, weaving a tale of Chicken Chiu, who’s played by Jordan Chan with a kind of raw intensity. The pacing has this almost nostalgic feel, capturing the chaotic energy of a life on the verge of crime. You see Chicken’s journey before he truly becomes part of the triad world, and it’s filled with moments that feel both heavy and fleeting. The action sequences, while not overly flashy, have a grounded quality that pulls you in, and the practical effects lend a certain authenticity. Ekin Cheng as Chan Ho Nam adds a depth to the narrative, exploring themes of loyalty and ambition. It sort of feels like peering into a world that’s both alluring and dangerous.
