Near Perfect...but, 4 October 2003
9/10
Author: buffylover1985 from Australia

No doubt about it, Running On Karma is an excellent film. It diverts into every conceivable genre and gets them perfect while retaining an excellent mood. However their is one "BIG" problem with the movie, Andy Lau's fake muscles. They look horrible and distracting and detract from the mood of the film. However the movie is so good it is hard to dwell on this. 9 out of 10
