In the action-packed film Sky on Fire, Daniel Wu stars as a security officer working at a state-of-the-art medical facility in Hong Kong that specializes in a revolutionary new cancer treatment. But when a mysterious gang of thieves targets the facility to steal the treatment, chaos ensues and Wu becomes embroiled in a dangerous game of cat and mouse to protect the cutting-edge technology from falling into the wrong hands.

The film opens with a swift kick to the face as we're introduced to the ruthless thieves at the center of the story. They're armed to the teeth and clearly mean business as they break into the medical facility's research lab to steal the cancer treatment. But Wu's character, one of the security guards on duty that night, is a force to be reckoned with and puts up a fight to try and stop the criminals.

As the thieves make their escape, Wu learns that they are working for a wealthy businessman who plans to use the treatment to save his dying daughter. This revelation sets the stage for an intense race against time to recover the stolen treatment before it's too late.

Complicating matters further is the fact that the treatment must be kept at a specific temperature, meaning the thieves only have a small window of time to transport it before it becomes useless. Wu and his team must use their skills and connections to track down the thieves and recover the treatment, all while dodging dangerous obstacles and staying one step ahead of the businessman's hired henchmen.

The action in Sky on Fire is relentless, with brutal fight scenes and thrilling car chases keeping audiences on the edge of their seats. Wu is a charismatic and likable protagonist, and his intense determination to protect the cancer treatment and the patients who need it makes him an easy character to root for.

But the film also explores more complex themes, such as the ethics of for-profit medical treatments and the lengths people will go to save the ones they love. This adds depth to the story and prevents it from feeling like a straightforward action movie.

The supporting cast is also strong, with Ruoyun Zhang and Jingchu Zhang delivering standout performances as a scientist working on the cancer treatment and a police officer investigating the theft, respectively. They provide Wu's character with valuable allies as he races to recover the stolen treatment and add layers of complexity to the story.

Overall, Sky on Fire is a thrilling ride that combines heart-pumping action with thought-provoking themes. It's a must-see for fans of the action genre, but even casual moviegoers will find themselves swept up in the excitement and emotional stakes of the story.

Sky on Fire is a 2016 action movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 40 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.5 and a MetaScore of 45.
