Largo Winch - Tomer Sisley (2008) - Central Walkways, Central
Following the car chase, we get the foot chase with Largo running around the walkways of Central as he tries to evade the baddies. It ends with a rather impressive Jackie Chan style leap onto the roof of a passing bus. There's a few recognisable sections of the walkways, such as...
...and finally the same walkway as the previous snap (leading to IFC1) where the jump to the bus takes place. The small building left of centre is the Connaught Road Station Building.
The steps next to Jardine House
The main walkway from Chater House
The newer glass-covered walkway leading from
Worldwide House to Exchange Square
The IFC1-side entrance

Flatfoot in Hong Kong - Bud Spencer (1975) - Central Vehicular Ferry Pier, Hong Kong
Barella (Al Lettieri) tries to fake out Rizzo by pretending to get on the cross harbour ferry, but Rizzo anticipates his trick and waits on the pier for Barella to appear after the ferry has gone. This scene was shot at the vehicular ferry pier in Central.
The pier was situated in front of the old Central Fire station next to Jubilee Street (that's the old fire station poking up at the top of the pier in the lower shot) - basically directly next to where the One IFC tower now stands (immediately to its north). The pier was demolished in 1994 for the IFC reclamation. Gwulo also has information here.
