Your best address woud be Michael Wong and Johnnie To films. It's up to you to decide for which to go.

P.T.U. by Johnnie To is all I know about, I'm sure there's many others.
I remember reading somewhere that Michael Wong carved out a niche for himself by starring a whole heap of SWAT movies or something like that.

The following UK R2's rock and are better than any other worldwide version:
The Quiet Family
Running out of Time
Running out of Time 2
Ok that's it... more to come later.

Yeah Quiet Family has been OOP for a while, it was only released last summer too. The next best will be the R4 but it doesn't look half as good as the stacked UK R2.
I asked a very similar question a while back if it helps:
