Despite being 30 minutes (or so) too long, it’s easily the best crime thriller I’ve seen all year. The pacing; the casting; the detail, it was all good. Though I’m sure I missed a lot of that detail in the subtitles.
After seeing another Asian film the other day, Chungking Express (also pretty good) - it seems that I’m on an Asian-movie bender.
I’m looking forward to seeing what the Toronto International Film Festival has to offer this year.
