When it comes to the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Nick Cheung is a sensation; the actor and singer has starred in TV and movie roles for more than three decades, and more recently has decided to take on the task of being a film director and screenplay writer. In his third endeavour as a writer and director, Cheung ups the ante and also stars as the lead protagonist in ‘The Trough,’ a pulpy crime thriller set in a dystopian universe. ‘The Trough’ might head in every direction while simultaneously going nowhere at all, but it is a highly engaging watch for those looking for nearly two hours of ridiculously convoluted entertainment.
Nick Cheung plays Yu Qiu, a hardened undercover cop who drinks copious amounts of alcohol in a variety of forms, lurks the midnight streets of an urban dystopia ridden with crime, and skydives from dangerous mountains just to feel something.
