Gen Y Cops - Edison Chen (2000) - Hong Kong International Airport, Chek Lap Kok

The police go to the airport to welcome the FBI contingent and their robot.

Hacker - Callan McAuliffe (2016) - Hong Kong International Airport, Chek Lap Kok

Next up is a foreign production for a change. It stars Callan McAuliffe as Alex, a computer hacker who teams up with a couple of other people to get rich by internet fraud and who catch the attention of a criminal mastermind who involves them in a plot to crash the US stock market so that they can reap the rewards when the market rebounds. Hmm, for some reason that sounds especially believable this week following what Trump has just done with the Global Tariffs (as I write in April 2025). The release date was 2016 but it looks like it may have been filmed a couple of years earlier.

Watch the film here (until it gets taken down).

The Hong Kong section of the film starts with the trio arriving at Hong Kong International Airport.

Amaya - Kaori Momoi (2010) - Ngong Ping 360, Tung Chung

Paul heads to the cable car with his not-so-newfound friend.

Strangers - John Simm (2018) - Ma Wan New Village, Tung Chung

After the abortive attempt to find out more about the property recently sold by their dead wife, Jonah and David head out to Lantau Island for a coffee. The venue is a small cafe called CoCo Cafe that is in Ma Wan New Village. I can ony assume it has this name because it was built to rehouse those people displaced by the bridge development on Ma Wan island when the airport was being constructed. According to Open Rice the place has closed down, which seems a bit of a shame. Can anyone confirm?
