Police Story 2 - Jackie Chan (1988) - View of Causeway Bay

So, Ka Kui causes a right old mess with his bust up at the cafe and resigns from the police force. Later that day, he and May ride the Star Ferry and decide to go on holiday. I'm not familiar with the old Star ferry schedules but in order to get the view seen below the ferry would've had to travel from North Point to Tsim Sha Tsui or similar route. The Citizen advert is on top of Elizabeth House, these days the same place is occupied by a large sign for Panasonic. What looks like a dimly lit ferry pier in the foreground is actually Kellet Island and the Yacht Club.

Spy Game - Robert Redford (2001) - Victoria Harbour Part 1, Hong Kong

It's a slow time for my chosen selection of films at the moment, so maybe it's time to dig out some classics. Case in point is Tony Scott's Spy Game released in 2001. This really isn't a made in Hong Kong film at all, there are really only three very brief snippets of Hong Kong - all of them essentially establishing sequences that set the scene for what follows. What follows is usually David Hemming's character, supposedly base in Hong Kong and speaking from what is purported to be the US Consulate.

The first establishing sequence we see involves the camera zooming along the harbour from the east towards a building in Wanchai, Elizabeth House in Causeway Bay.
