I have to say I was really disappointed with this . It was recommended as sleazy Noir movie but I just found it dull.
There is only so much I can take of people chain smoking and looking moody .
Fleeing from the law, gangster Zenong Zhou crosses paths with an innocent-looking woman named Aiai Liu . Unbeknownst to Zhou, she holds a significant secret. Zhou must then confront the limits of what he is willing to sacrifice both for this stranger and for the family he left behind.
As well as being as dull as dishwater , the characters we're uninspiring and I couldn't care less what happened to them . There were too many people getting involved with finding Zhou and it diluted any interest I might have.
The one good thing is that it looked great . Set at night , the scenery is fantastic . There is something about the back streets of China that look great on the big screen but sadly that's the only positive and I'm sure by tomorrow I will have forgotten about most of this film .
