Average Asian action, 14 February 2006
5/10
Author: 6325 from Germany

This is one of the average 'policeguy tries to help in solving crime puzzle but is hindered by other police force' action flicks. It tries to look stylish and Hollywood-alike but on the whole it neither manages to reach Hollywood standards nor can live up to other well achieved Asian action movies. In no way this movie can compare to the excellent 'Shiri', any of the Takeshi Kitano films or the great Hongkong action movies. The movie characters appear rather flat in this movie and the flow of the movie is not really in the right pace. The excellent TV-series '24' with Kiefer Sutherland is a perfect example how to pace and direct a movie with that 'lonesome cop fights against all' theme. As for the comedy aspects in that film: stick to 'Beverly Hills Cop 1', 'Bad Boys', 'Lethal Weapon series' and similar films and you will have more fun. And as for Asian action movies: there are plenty of very good action flicks. Overall I rate this movie 5/10, it's not really that bad at all, but don't expect another 'Shiri' or 'Brother', 'Hana-Bi' or even 'Fulltime Killer'.
