Golden Job, released in 2018, is a Hong Kong action film featuring Ekin Cheng as Lion and Jordan Chan as Crater, reuniting a group of former mercenaries for a daring heist. Upon its initial release, the movie received mixed reviews, praised for its exhilarating action sequences and chemistry among the leads, but criticized for an inconsistent plot and pacing issues. Over time, Golden Job's reputation has improved significantly among fans of the genre. It is now regarded as an underrated gem, celebrated for its heartfelt camaraderie, stylish action choreography, and nostalgic value linked to the beloved 'Young and Dangerous' series, in which many cast members previously starred. While it may not have achieved mainstream blockbuster status, Golden Job enjoys a dedicated cult following and is viewed as a standout in modern Hong Kong action cinema rather than a dated relic.
