STAR RUNNER
Starring: Vanness Wu, Andy On Chi Kit, Kim Hyun Joo, Wong Yau Nam, Chin Kar Lok, Ti Lung, Gordon Liu, Max Mox

A film about kickboxing, and the Cantonese title suggests that this is a sort of prequel to Andy Lau's A Fighter's Blues, but I think it is merely a film about kickboxing with the same name. The film basically charts the progress of a fighter who wants to take on the best in the ring and win.

When Ah Man (Louis Koo) dies from an accident while driving his minibus, he leaves behind him his wife Siu Wai (Cheung) and his son Ah Lok from a previous marriage.

Driving a minibus is primarily a man's job, and she finds it difficult, but she meets a decent colleague in Dai Fai (Lau Ching Wan), who falls in love with her.
