In the hospital, he claims human rights to refuse immediate treatment in order to buy time for his underlings to rescue him.

Viewing Notes
I like most of To’s work but this one didn’t do a lot for me. The cat and mouse game gets tedious and the final scenes feel contrived, poorly shot and too steeped in digital squid FX to have any real impact.
