I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
... View Morean ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
... View MoreThis is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
... View MoreEach character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
... View MoreSo which side is our man on? That's the question in this drug mafia movie where the police have found a way to take down a major drug crew, but have to use one of their key arrests to help them. However, who is he playing for and with? This is a clever and ambitious little movie. Well directed and acted, this film takes influence from others in the genre (such as The Wire) but maps out its own story, and it's really interesting.The Far East has a rich history of mafia movies, and this isn't amongst the classics, but that doesn't devalue it. It still is a fine film, with good directing and acting. Some interesting characters too.Very much worth watching.
... View MoreI really enjoyed the movie,it started well and the story line was nice but the shooting effects was bad,too bad if a director like Roland or Danny Boyle has taken it,it would have being awesomely great,but i also got a problem,i didn't like the way Timmy died. He tried surviving till the very end only for him to survive he still died,and that was very annoying and how did that cop at the end of the movie cuff his legs,that was the most annoying part for me,to very annoying but it was a great storyline but poor shooting effects. I really love Asian movies its certainly the best if not its very entertaining so very much. if you think am wrong tweet me @iamowomizz
... View MoreActing was solid mostly. Story was too predicable. Basically a really terrible imitation of a throw-away American 70s gansta movie without all the fun and humor. The message is, drugs are bad and drug dealers gets justice. Don't do drugs.The thing is, the movie can propaganda this message and also makes it fun (see Lethal Weapon series for great examples). This is way too serious and at least show cops hold their weapons correctly (see End of Watch). Wasted my time.
... View MoreI can appreciate the work that went into making Drug War, the action scenes are well-directed and it has a likable cast, but what it boils down to, is that it just isn't fun to watch. I was checking how long I had left of the film every 25 minute or so, and that's not a good sign. I'm not asking for mindless action and shoot-outs, I just don't think the story was exciting enough to keep me interested for the films almost 2 hour long running time.If you absolutely love thrillers from Hong Kong and don't mind a somewhat slow pace, then maybe this film will appeal to you. Director Johnnie To has made some really great films in the past, such as the Election-films and Mad Detective. 5/10
