In Hong Kong, the special force of the police known as 2002 is composed of the twenty-two year-old cop Chiu (Nicholas Tse) and his ghost partner and they fight against supernatural phenomena under the guidance of the mystic Paper Chan (Kar-Ying Law). When his partner reincarnates, the rookie policeman Fung (Stephen Fung) applies for the position; but Paper Chan explains Chiu that the team is to be formed by a man and a spirit, and Chiu has a death star on his hand that dooms his friends to die. Meanwhile, Chiu falls in love for Nurse Danielle (Danielle Graham), but he avoids her to protect her life against the fate of the death star. When the fiend Water Ghost (Alex Fong) possesses Fung seeking revenge against Chiu, he has to battle against the evil spirit trying to protect also his friend.The melodramatic "2002" blends action, sci-fi, fantasy, fight scenes, drama, romance, comedy, free merchandise of a bank and an ice-cream brand and cheap philosophy; the result is an enjoyable, but very confused movie, with weird rules and no explanation for the ghosts and fiends in Hong Kong. The special effects work very well and in the end this film is a good entertainment. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "2002 – Exterminadores do Além" ("2002 – Terminators from Beyond")

Alright, this film wasn't the best in the world. In fact, it probably ranks in the bottom half. Most of the film wasn't very good or inspiring but the bit that caught my eye was the sequence near the end were Wind and Fung were battling it out in the rain. That was probably the best bit. Some good Hong-Kong Wire works but no Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.

When this movie premiered on sky, I really wanted to watch it but due to a faulty satellite, I couldn't. The next day I looked for it on Amazon and couldn't find it. After a while I forgot about it, until last night, it was on again (the satellite had been fixed by then). I shoved a tape in and watched it. I had my doubts about this film, I've seen many Chinese films and I know when there bad, there bad but when there good, man are they good. This little gem happened to be one of the good ones, the editing, the music, the relationship between the two main characters made this film one of the most entertaining films I'd seen for a while. Wilson Yip did a good job of this (it's a film that could have been easily ruined), the film has just the right amount of everything in it, action, comedy, romance. Overall, I really enjoyed this film and hope they make a sequel, I'd give it a cool four stars.

Ok, while it isn't as good as Ghostbusters, it was a very entertaining picture. The ideas of reincarnation and the afterlife were really cool to see, particularly Sam Lee's character being reborn. The martial arts were decent but it was painfully obvious that both Nicholas Tse and Stephen Fung aren't the best fighters if at all. It really didn't matter because the action was cut well and the fights seemed to be innovative, especially the pool fight. With top notch special effects, action, and some comedy, 2002 is a pretty good movie that may have gone under some people's radar. It's something that people should definitely check out.
