 Anguished Declaration of Love: Between Ray and Heung-lan, right at the end of the film, when Big Bad Dick is using Heung-lan as a hostage.

 Actor/Role Confusion: Inverted; Jimmy is a retired police officer who becomes an actor... who specially plays policemen on film. Turns out his method acting as a policeman doesn't sit well with his film directors, who ends up chiding his acting skills and demands for more takes from him.

 Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene: Quite a few, mostly between Ray and his mother and sister, or with his Old Flame Lina. And there's also a scene with Ray suddenly realizing he might have feelings for Heung-lan after witnessing her being hospitalized after barely surviving a boat explosion, where he ends up by her bedside holding her hand.
