Viewing Notes
Holy shit I cannot believe this Fantasia film is playing at the promenade. Total throwback old school batshit Hong Kong crime thriller that requires a suspension of belief as usual but gets a bump for just going for it. Messy and ridiculous but most 90s HK crime flicks are.
Love seeing Charlene Choi again after yesterday’s film, Treasure Inn. She hasn’t aged a day.
