SPL - Donnie Yen (2005) - Sheung Yuet Road, Kowloon Bay

Although the main establishing scenes for Wong Po's headquarters and environs were filmed in East TST, for the finale, as Ma takes the money to Wong, the exterior shots and infamous alleyway leading to the venue were filmed in Kowloon Bay. Credit to Dan Thomas for tracking down this via a Japanese reader called Isamu. It's here where Ma battles Jack in a baton v knife fight before heading up to confront Wong Po. It's also here where Wong's wife and child are parked at the end of the sequence. Love him or hate him, I think many would agree that this is one of Donnie's best fights.
