I did not want the new film to live in its shadow because it is an entirely different movie, except with the same cast.'^[7] Dante Lam chose the theme of an informant in the film, stating that there is 'Hong Kong shoot-out film on this theme yet. It's a good subject for exploring human nature and I have done research with involved people in real life'.^[8]

Actor Nick Cheung stated that he felt much more relaxed working on Stool Pigeon than he did previously on The Beast Stalker as he had worked with the cast before. Some reports noted that Cheung was unhappy that his screen time is shorter, Cheung denied this saying he was misquoted off his Twitter by the Hong Kong media and paparazzi.^[9]

Reception[edit]

The China Post gave the film three stars out of five stating praising a car race scenes set to the song 'White Christmas' while stating that the action scenes are thin. The China Post also noted that there were 'a few unnecessary subplots' and that overall 'the story is gripping and entertaining throughout.'^[4] Film Business Asia gave the film a rating of eight out of ten also praised the 'White Christmas' race scene. They compared the film to Beast Stalker, stating it was 'less dark and claustrophobic than Stalker..But it's more deeply characterised from top to bottom, with much better chemistry between Tse and Cheung than between Leon Lai and Richie Ren in [Fire of Conscience]. Only the subplot of the detective's private life seems pasted into the overall drama.'^[1]The Hollywood Reporter compared the film negatively to The Beast Stalker, stating that The Stool Pigeon 'falls short in tension and stylistic brio if judged as a sister film..The narrative could benefit from more tautness. As if worried about the audience's attention span for drama, action scenes are intermittently inserted throughout but they don't build to one big momentum.'^[13]Time Out Hong Kong gave the film three stars out of six, finding the film far too similar to Dante Lam's other works.^[14]

Reception[edit]

'A crook story of unusual interest in two reels..The story is cleverly worked out and holds the interest firmly.' --Moving Picture World

'This is Lon Chaney's first picture made with the Kerrigan-Victor company, and his success with it marks him as a capable director. The story is replete with situations of a tense character, and is so constructed that the climax can hardly be foretold until it arrives, a great point in its credit. That it will be heartily appreciated by the most critical audience is certain.' ---Motion Picture News^[3]
