The Trigger (2002) is a film from Taiwan in the lookmovie catalog, running 1h 43m. Directed by Alex Yang, it features Ngai Man-Yin and Cai Xinghung. Viewers rate it 10/10 from 1 vote. A professional hit-man is hired to take out a target -- however, his girlfriend’s pregnancy gives him second thoughts. He decides that after this job, he will renounce his profession and turn himself in. This is the first feature film from Taiwanese director Alex Yang, who participated in script-writing and production on Edward Yang's early films. "The Trigger" has echoes of Yang's "Mahjong." The actors in the film, except for veteran Ngai Man-Yin, are all new faces -- unfortunately, Ngai's death in 2005 also made "The Trigger" his last appearance on screen.
