(2006) Exiled
(In Chinese with English subtitles)
ART HOUSE THRILLER
Another Chinese triad vehicle produced and directed by Johnny To, centering on a couple of hired goons to take a guy out, only that they become sentimentalists since one of their intended targets is expecting. Simon Yam reprising his bad guy role image again as of late. And there's hardly any action at all, but a lot of fancy artistic images similar to what one could find in a Wong Kar Wei film which I'm not a fan of either. They're some artistically photographed gun fights but the bloody red powder or powder paint is kind of distracting.
