ItвЂ™s less a sense of discrimination than unfairness that fuels FungвЂ™s growing sense of anger and resentment not only towards the police force but towards society in general which he now feels regards human beings as little more than disposable tools. Despite passing all the fitness criteria Fung is fobbed off with an offer of a desk job in police PR, refused a return to the bomb squad as the panel quite openly admit not so much because they feel his disability impairs his ability to do the job as they fear public blowback should something go wrong and they be blamed for having hired a disabled person in the first place. When heвЂ™s injured on a job, tricked by a random booby trap while trying to free a trapped cat, and loses his leg he reacts with characteristically upbeat stoicism quickly adjusting to his new prosthesis and determined to get back to work, training intensely with the help of his friend Tung (Sean Lau Ching-wan) who was also injured in the same blast only not so seriously.

When we first meet him, heвЂ™s essentially playing the same role as the first film, a cheerful, slightly cocky bomb disposal expert with a potentially reckless streak born of his willingness to risk his own life to save those of others.

The hero, Fung (Andy Lau Tak-wah), finds himself suffering from amnesia after encountering the second serious accident of his professional life. The villains here claim they want вЂњchangeвЂќ, but in reality want little more than to burn the world, enraged by its refusal to recognise or remember them consumed as they are by wounded male pride.

вЂњAnger can destroy everythingвЂќ according to the voiceover opening Herman YauвЂ™s Shock Wave 2 (ж‹†еЅ€е°€е®¶2), a thematic sequel to the original Shock Wave once again starring Andy Lau as a Hong Kong police bomb disposal officer battling serious threat to the islandвЂ™s transport infrastructure but also picking up themes from the pairвЂ™s subsequent collaboration White Storm 2 in which the veteran actor had starred against type as a Batman-esque billionaire vigilante fighting a one man war on drugs.
