Hong Kong cop Lee goes on a search in Thailand for his missing daughter Chi. Thai-Chinese police officer Chui Kit lets Lee join the investigation, having no idea that Lee is going to use the mass media to hunt for clues. When a short clip that accidentally filmed Chi’s capture is uploaded to the police website is subsequently deleted, Chui Kit and colleague Tak manage to locate the clip’s owner, but the evidence is destroyed before they can act on it. As the duo continue tracking down the culprit and get closer to the truth, they realize that the case is more complicated than it initially appeared, and the mastermind behind the scene is not someone they can deal with. The story of Paradox may seem similar to that of Taken, but unlike that film, Paradox takes a different, unexpected turn in the end. With action scenes that are much more sophisticated and believable, it becomes an updated version of Taken that is just as satisfying for audiences.
