**Shock Wave (2017) Movie Overview**
Cheung Choi-san, a bomb disposal officer with the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Bureau (EOD), goes undercover in a gang led by Hung Kai-pang, a notorious thief specializing in explosives. Collaborating with his handler, Superintendent Chow, and senior inspector Kong Yiu-wai, Cheung successfully arrests several of Hung’s accomplices, including his younger brother, after a cash vault robbery. He also neutralizes a bomb, preventing a disaster. Despite these victories, Hung escapes capture and plots revenge.
Six months later, Cheung returns to his role at EOD, is promoted to superintendent, and begins a relationship with Carmen, a recently divorced school teacher. A year later, Hung resurfaces, now working with mercenaries and drug traffickers in the Golden Triangle. He is hired by Yim Kwok-wing, president of Man Chung Corporation, to hijack the Cross-Harbour Tunnel and pressure the Hong Kong government into repurchasing the company’s stocks.
After Cheung receives an award for his undercover work, Superintendent Chow is killed in a car bombing, which Cheung believes is Hung’s doing. The next day, Cheung disposes of a bomb planted by Hung outside the Revenue Tower but is forced to deal with another explosive delivered via a remote-controlled toy truck. With Kong’s help, Cheung manages to throw the bomb into Victoria Harbour. However, Hung and his mercenaries take control of the Cross-Harbour Tunnel, holding hundreds of civilians hostage with 1,000 kg of C4 explosives placed at both ends of the tunnel.
