狂忘警探
Director: SABU
Cast: Ethan Juan, Moon Lee, Reika Kirishima, Shinichi Tsutsumi, Hsieh Ying-shiuan
In the bustling heart of Taipei, detective Lee once stood as the city's most celebrated crime-fighter. But when a brutal operation costs him his entire squad, the weight of survival crushes him, forcing a transfer to a sleepy countryside precinct. Plagued by trauma, Lee’s mind erects its own defense—a wall of amnesia that he fiercely conceals from everyone around him. His quiet new life shatters when a high-stakes case lands on his desk: the abduction of a powerful Japanese tycoon’s only son. With each passing hour, fragments of his past slip further away, leaving Lee with nothing but raw, unshakeable intuition. Against every logical expectation, that primal instinct becomes his only compass—steering him straight into the heart of the kidnappers' lair.
