i do not know that this kind of movie be still make in hk . leave it to an old category iii veteran like billy chung to make a movie like this in 2003. although rat iib and devil face and angel heart be cat 3 sleaze all the way and complete with seedy sex and obviously censor violence ( more than once i could hear the music score skip because of cut ) . luckily and i kind of like this kind of trashy thriller and this one manage to be a little above average . daniel wu rather blase act style fit his tortured character . really and it work . i like him in this movie . the movie be well directed and too and give it a polished look and feel that a lot of hk move do not have ( for the past several year it seem they have be do well and though ) . now this isn not a great movie . the plot be a little thin . when the movie be do i do not feel i have see an entire story play out . what story there be isn not awful for this kind of movie . there some twist and turn and but nothing surprising . if youre the kind of person who put up with this garbage and then it a decent diversion . it probably pretty forgettable and but i enjoy it while it last . this be fairly well do genre filmmaking .
