Hit the wrong button on the computer and only gave this one star, but it's a 4-star movie. Doh!!!
Intelligent and thoughtful cop drama that looks at first as if it's going to fall into all the old cliches, but doesn't.
A very human film.
Anthony Wong is as impressive as ever in this latest Infernal Affairsclone.
It's all been done before of course but that doesn't prevent The colour of Truth from becoming an entertaining night in with an excellent central performance and enough twists and turns to keep most movie fans happy.
There have been so many cop movies coming from The East since the success of Infernal Affairs and as with most fads, most of the films are poor imitations which the distributors hope to make a quick buck on regardless of the quality.
The Colour of Truth manges to break the mould and like Running out of Time before it, stand on its own two feet as a darn good police drama and a good night in.
