Time for a new film and here is one filmed back around 2002/2003. The film was famous for its base jump from the top of the under-construction 2IFC and the fact that it also used a bit of not so convincing CGI to show that said tower was in fact above Times Square in Causeway Bay. But more of that later. As you can see below, the geography isn't so important because in our first glimpse of Hong Kong in the film as a plane lands at an airport seemingly right in the middle of the harbour.
No, it's not an aircraft carrier because the next shot the plane sitting on the apron at "Chai Wan Airport".
There's also something odd about the background that just doesn't seem to match the reality. Of the buildings I recognise, their positioning seems odd. Aside from the obvious inclusion of the airport runway in the foreground, even the background looks to be a composite.
