This movie successfully combines science fiction,drama and horror! The pace of "Silk" is just right! From the start you want to know what is going on! There are certainly enough scares and surprises! There is a subplot involving Chen Chang (Tung) to deepen his character but falls a bit short at the end! The horror elements of the story are subtle but scary when it needs to be! There aren't many characters involved! That is a good thing so you know where to put the focus! There are some matters that are not explained in the story! Like the cube they are using in the movie! It is not necessary for the outcome of the main story,but it would have been nice! The actors are great! Chen Chang really carries the movie! The actor who plays Hashimoto also is wonderful! You can see in his eyes that he is too obsessed with the case! It could be that some scares remind people of other Asian horror movies! Honestly,I don't have a problem with that! They are very effective in this movie! So who cares that it is not totally original! "Silk" is full of suspense and is very entertaining on different fronts! Definitely a must see!!!
