Original title: 目無王法
What Price Honesty? is a 1981 Chinese-language action movie directed by Patrick Yuen Ho-Chuen, with a running time of 1h 29m. It stars Jason Pai Piao, Sun Chien and Danny Lee Sau-Yin.
Police corruption is the theme of this brutal harbinger of the bleak "new wave" crime thriller. Pai Piao, Danny Lee, and "Venom" Sun Chien star as idealistic police school graduates who run afoul of such vicious, murderous depravity that the cop who is killed first could be considered the lucky one.
