    • Trivia
      The American superior of Lan Qingfeng was played by Kevin Spacey. That storyline of spies was deleted due to the censorship problems, then the scene of this character giving Tianran order in the beginning was re-shot with another actor replacing Spacey. For the same reason, almost all the scenes of Lan Lan, played by Meng Li, were deleted.

    Stanley Kubrick meets Quentin Tarantino
    This is a very solid neo-western. Jiang Wen, once again, proves that he is the most talented filmmaker in China. The tension arises right from start, and does not end until finish. The length of this film is 137 minutes, but you never feel it that long, as it is rather compact, fast-paced and intense. The multi-angle, quick-cut editing, which used to be a trademark of Stanley Kubrick, appears frequently in this movie. The inherent strong violence is neutralized by the underlying sly humor to a large extent, and this characteristic was the signature of Quentin Tarantino.

    Liao Fan, who had been underrated for a long time, proves again to be the best actor of his generation. His performances are just impeccable that he is simply unrecognizable for his particular role. The production design, I have to say, is unique, with many of the scenes set on the roof. The sound editing and cinematography are also noteworthy.
