Director: Tsui Hark
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
An extraordinary thriller in which Tsui Hark matches the graphic horror-comic violence of his narrative - involving arms-dealing Vietnam vets, Triad gangsters, and a dash of anarchic urban terrorism - with an equally 'violent' sense of character and mise en scène. As genre limits are stretched in an atmosphere of seemingly constant hysteria, the security of even the most cynical viewer will crumble.Author: SJ
