Such a frustrating disappointment
Excellent adaptation.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
This movie wasn't really that great, and I can't say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. The story isn't really worth noting, and the action scenes weren't special at all. My suggestion is that you could probably save your time and watch another movie instead.Story wise, the movie is about two detectives, one from Thailand and one from Malaysia, both Cantonese, who solve the same case together. The case revolves around the Thailand-based detective wanting to find out who murdered his parents 30 years ago. He begins his search in Malaysia after catching wind that he should start his search there, and he hires the Malaysia-based detective for local assistance.Really, there's not much to say. There weren't any "wow" moments, and all the chase and fighting scenes were average at best. You can find them in any other generic HK crime movie. My nephew couldn't watch past halfway because she found it boring, and I agree that there's really nothing that tries to keep your attention.
