Saw this at the gala invited by friend and found the film to be quite a piece of work. Comeback king Peter Yu stole the show imho. The man has the chops and still looks great. And the film kept me at the edge of my seat with it's plot. More people should go and watch this
Serpentine plot line and understated political commentary. An intriguing urban noir that unfolds much like a dream. Hideho Urata presentation of the reclaimed land, which looks much like a dystopia, is also impressive, as it is realistic. Mounds of aggregate and cement loom up like pyramids in the dusky night air.
An intriguing urban noir that unfolds much like a dream. Hideho Urata presented a number of impressive images, both in the dark and in the neon-lit internet cafe. Lyrical slow-motion musical interludes enhance the dreamlike ambience. The site’s endless mountains of sand, framed like looming burial sites, emanate an impression of human disposability.
