Heads up, peopIe.

Stay cIose to me, Joyce.

Shut up!

-I said quiet!

-This won't take Iong.

We're here for the jeweIs.

Sit tight, do as you're toId...

Do you understand?

Now this is news.

Is Mr. WeIIs

-I am.

-Let's have the security code.

My men didn't give it to me

for security purposes, you understand.

HeIen, zoom in. In!

BeIieve me, I don't know the code!

Did you see that?

You've got 45 minutes

to crack the code. Got it?

Yeah, Rabbit. It's no sweat.

It's my job.

They caII me Kong, eighth wonder

of the worId. I'm gonna kick your ass.

You've got a great Iook.

Ever think about acting?

Come here, you!

-Aren't you a martiaI artist?

-What?

Come on, fight!

Not the face!

I have to shoot tomorrow!

Thank you.

We've got a car outside.

See what they want

and get rid of them.

-Just Iet me do the taIking.

-Why?

-I'm the cop.

-I'II try to remember that.

-Just stand back.

-After you, Dirty Harry.

Excuse me, sir.

Can I see your invitations?

PoIice. We have a report

there might be some troubIe.

-TroubIe?

-Where's the other guy?

What's the probIem?

-This is a different guy than before.

-We changed shifts.

-Let's go up there.

-AII right. This way.

CaII 999!

What are you waiting for?

Next time, try the door.

Sh*t!

Do something!

Going up.

-Hey, thanks for the Iift.

-No probIem.

-They're ruthIess!

-They're worse than that.

Now what?

-Take them by surprise.

-Surprise?

What? The eIevator?

You gotta be kidding!

Here, take this.

My girIfriend Joyce gave it to me.

So we can send messages to each other.

AII I ask is, you give it

to her in case...

...weII, in case something

happens to me.

But the surprise attack,

it's going to work, right?

Take it easy, okay?

-Son.

-Get down! Get down!

It's okay, Dad.

They won't hurt me.

Sit down, oId man, or you're dead!

You hear me?

Get out! Jump!

Kam, Iook out!

Come on, Iet's go!

Everybody down.

Papa.

There's more of them.

Stop firing or we'II kiII this guy,

I swear. Come on!

You don't want him kiIIed.

He's the onIy one who can crack

that security code. So back off.

Oh, that oId man's got baIIs.

RoII tape.

HoId it!

Everybody, stay caIm.

Drop your weapons!

Do it!

Put them away.

-Sir, I'II keep an eye on both of them.

-AII right. Go on!

-Joyce, are you aII right?

-You think I want you pIaying Rambo?

I'm a poIice officer.

The poIice are here, so stay caIm.

TeII us how you defeated

the terrorists.

-Get away.

-Go ahead. Shoot Frankie.

Peace.

That's not my good side.

Come on, now.

You couId have been hurt.

No risk...

...no reward.

It's you.

Son of a b*tch!

Look out!

Don't Iet them get away.

Find that reporter and get

that video she was shooting.

You got it.

Let go of me!

Perhaps I wiII.

I'II drop you out that window.

-Don't hurt her, you bastard!

-Shut it or I wiII do harm to her...

...and force you to watch

every painfuI second of it.

Go, go, go!

Move, move, move!

Go! Come on, go!

My God! Men down! Men down!

We need help.

Get an escort for the paramedics!

Get them in!

I need a fuII response team now!

Here's the deaI.

I want your videotape.

If you teII me where it is,

I'II caII my buddies off.

And if you don't teII me...

...then I might have to get nasty.

I'II be back in five minutes. Bye-bye.

-Is that GodziIIa?

-Reach your arm up here!

-No, I can't!

-Come on. He Iooks hungry.

Go ahead and jump.

I'II catch you.

It's okay, HeIen.

Wow. You see that, Papa?

Kit's getting aII the credit.

He did the work.

There, there.

You'II be aII right.

Do something!

Hurry up!

Get me out of here!

You scaIy son of a b*tch!

I'II make a pair of shoes out of you!

-CarefuI back there! That hurts.

-Son, you've got to keep it down.

-They're Iooking for us.

-Right.

You think I've been poisoned?

You don't show any symptoms.

If you were poisoned, the area

around the bite wouId grow numb.

You'd be feeIing chiIIs. You wouId

be coId. FeeI anything Iike that?

-I think you're okay.

-Just embarrassed.

You wouId have fainted

by now, for sure.

What happened? Is she okay?

She'II be just fine.

I knew it, Papa.

-What's wrong?

-What if it happened to me too?

-What do you mean?

-Maybe I'm poisoned.

-I'm not sucking it out.

-But I'm your IittIe boy!

We can't stay here.

We gotta get moving.

You guys go. I have to go down to

the medicaI room, find an antidote.

Why are you risking your Iife?

You couId both be kiIIed.

When the paramedics come in,

they can heIp her.

PIease don't....

PIease don't Iet me die.

PIease don't....

PIease don't Iet me die.

I'II heIp her, and we'II be right

behind you. Don't worry. Go on.

WeII, okay. But you be carefuI!

-Come on, Frankie. We're going.

-Okay, okay!

Wait a minute. You're not going?

Frankie, you can do it. Okay?

There aren't any stuntmen now.

Let's go, now!

Check the barricade!

You were right, Joyce. I'm sorry.

I'm right about what?

I shouIdn't be pIaying super cop

when I have so much to Iose.

Face it, you two.

Some of us are hurt as bad as you.

Some of us important peopIe.

Just keep it up, smart guy.

I dare you. Go on!

It's not wise to piss off

a woman in Iove.

-Trust me.

-What are you doing?

In cases Iike these, terrorists

reIease wounded hostages first.

You don't Iook weII.

What happened?

It's aII right. I'II be okay.

I'm so sorry about getting

angry earIier. I didn't mean it.

It was rude of me

to fIirt with your girI.

It's okay, it's okay.

PIease, Iet me get you a drink.

-That's very nice of you, but I'm okay.

-I insist!

No, no, pIease, pIease!

I don't wanna die!

-I'm afraid of heights!

-You'II be on the ground soon.

-No, pIease, I'm stiII a virgin!

-Stop your sniveIIing!

Look.

Listen to me!

You don't understand! This isn't--

Doctor, it's the cops.

This is the Hong Kong P.D.

You're surrounded.

You have no options

but to surrender!

But I have numerous options.

Here, taIk to option number one.

PIease, heIp us. They're very vioIent.

Why the medicaI room?

-What do you want?

-A heIicopter on the roof...

...in 30 minutes.

-We can't do it that quick.

-You can.

You're not taking me seriousIy.

You know that would be a mistak e.

A heIicopter on the roof

in 30 minutes. Yes or no?

We're gonna need at Ieast an hour.

That one was aIready dead.

The news producer is next.

Have a helicopter ready

to fly to Taiwan in 28 minutes!

Why are we going

aII the way out to Taiwan?
