Good movies, but also intentionally tell the story, lens language and switching are very comfortable, not too much irrelevant plot mix. Several of the actors were good, but the fearful performance was slightly exaggerated. Two minor supporting actors, Chen Bijue and the real criminals, whose acting skills are really impressive.

...a really, really powerful ending.... ....it's got Deng Chao in the lead as supposed baddie.... ....strong movie about redemption and the cost of.... this movie was forcefully edited dued to pressure by government(communist mainland china) and yet it's still an engrossing crime, suspense genre movie. haha...just goes to prove that it's hard to sabotage something that is really really good. i would rate this as top 7 of my favorite movies of 2015. came across it by luck really and decided to take a chance on it because Deng Chao is one of my favorite Chinese actors. i was not the least bit disappointed, the 2hrs. and 20 mins. seem to fly by. short gist of story...3 young men supposedly commit a gruesome crime...murdering a family of 5. then it fast forwards to 7 years down the line and what they are doing with their lives. there is a reveal on top of a reveal at the end. might take a couple of viewings to understand why the men did what they did at the end.

Are they bad people with unforgivable sin? It seems that it is impossible to say so particular the unconditional love they give away to Tail. However, are they good people with conscience? Or they just want to redeem their original sin. So human nature is complex, and good and bad are not obvious and absolute. All in all their acting is convincing.
