Cosas divertidas
Trivialidades:
When the film came out, it was protested against by the Chinese American community for presenting an inaccurate and stereotyped image of Chinatown. másGoofs:
Continuity: Clock in the background of the backup TV studio. másQuotes:
[first lines]Tracy Tzu: Captain McKenna, any leads in the murder of Jackie Wong?
William McKenna: Nothing at this time.
Tracy Tzu: Do you think this killing means there's some kind of war going on in the Chinatown Tongs?
William McKenna: No, I don't. This is basically a situation where the youth gangs are lashing out at the establishment. The community is cooperating. The situation's under control.

In the mid eighties Mickey Rourke was considered a cult figure in Hollywood (he still is, only at that time we was a promising one). This movie truly reflects all of his talent in the role of a police officer and Vietnam veteran, who tries to clean up China Town. It's easy to realize that Oliver Stone wrote the script, and it's probably Stone's personal opinions that come out of Rourke's mouth.
It's still good after all these years and although it's no masterpiece, it's quite entertaining.
