“Eye in the Sky” refers to how, with modern technology, both ordinary people as well as those with criminal intent can be observed at all times via CCTV, satellite, cameras, infrared monitors, and other devices. In Chinese, this concept also refers to a form of divine intervention, in which an all-seeing eye divines justice from above. In EYE IN THE SKY, a crack squad from the Criminal Intelligence Bureau (CIB), the most secretive and elite branch of the Hong Kong police force, uses sophisticated surveillance equipment to observe, follow and track down the most dangerous of criminals. After a high stakes jewelry heist was successfully carried out by an ultra-professional criminal gang led by mastermind Shan (Tony Leung), what follows is a tense and intricately plotted game of cat-and-mouse between CIB chief Matt (Simon Yam) and members of Shan’s gang. But it is the rookie agent Bo (Kate Tsui) who is dramatically thrust into a situation where she must prove herself, including coming face-to-face with the dangerous and charismatic crime leader himself… (official distributor synopsis)
