Haven't enjoyed a Chinese movie this much for quite a while, and I'm glad to finally see a none-martial drama bidding to represent China in the competition for Oscar best foreign film(though fail).
The director Zhang Yibai elaborates many wonderful integral twists, and Curiosity Kills has a admirable perspective looking into everyday real life of different classes of contemporary Chinese(lack some depth though). I guess these are what have this movie stand out.
And now the bad points, the acting of the leading man, which is just mechanical and emotionless, verges on destroying the whole plot while others of the cast deliver nothing more than mediocre performance. Another weakness of this movie is its senseless cinematography, very immature and unfortunately the editing make it look even worse...
In all, Curiosity Kills the Cat is an impressive good movie with some apparent shortcomings, worth a try.
