  • pee tee you

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By juradino (811 reviews) from London , 12 Oct 2011
    Great on stylistic meaningfulness it is slick and makes you think and wonder. Makes you think that maybe To was married to some Asian equivalent of Madonna (the girl on the billboard who turned out not quite like Minka), when he made it because it is so much like Revolver by Guy Ritchie. In good old days they made films like Subway or Driver and critics were fairly contemptuous. Never mind meaning, never mind plot, never mind anything, it kills time with efficient ease. Please Technical Universe.

  • Very slow and tedious

    88 minutes to get not very far at all. A poor example of recent Asian cinema.

  • Atmosphere a plenty

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By jesuskenevil (245 reviews) from Bruton , 08 Feb 2010
    An atmospheric piece of supposedly film noir. Beautifully shot, wide angled night time city scapes lend this film an other worldliness that I found quite mesmerizing in places. Then strangely broken up with moments of comedy from Lo. Everyone is flawed and the ‘action’ only happens in this ghostly night time realm,

    A mood piece!

  • Very bad version of '24'.

    Rated - 0.0 stars  
    By a customer from London , 31 May 2009
    I agree with the previous reviewer. It's a very boring film and a waste of time and effort.

    It's not thrilling, not very well acted and the fights are comical. Hong Kong movies are hit and miss. Usually they are bad, when they good they are very good. This is bad.

    Amusing ending, and fairly well done in places, but seriously tedious for the majority.
