Tang ren jie tan an

As a detective movie, the mystery is decent, but squashed into the last quarter of the film. The first half of the movie is "silly fun". It is funny, but mostly physical comedy and "wu li tou". After a lot of chaos, finally they start to analyze and detect. In the last 1/4, the film also manages to squeeze in a twist and surprise.

Without giving out spoilers, one of scenes has a facial expression reminding me of Edward Norton's brilliant portrait of Roy in Primal Fear.

Overall enjoyable but nothing unforgettable.

Its definitely a fun movie, tons of comedic moments and glad that it didnt stuck in a one tone formula like other chinese movies. Leaning towards adventurous, mystery and actions, which reminds me of sherlock holmes and detective conan. Very enthusiastic casts and great use of landscapes and other cultures. The storyline was kinda basic and very predictable moments. Had a lgbt representation but not sure on how it was executed since china government arent lgbtq+ friendly. So yes, recommended.

Little fresh meat can't keep up with Wang Baoqiang's rhythm. It's simply a feeling of narration. Qualified playful movies, the finishing touch is the last girl's amazing laugh.

I don't speak Mandarin, but I thought it was a quality movie. 100 gags; the audience was laughing lightly through most of the movie. This movie was produced in China and has similarities to a Jackie Chan movie, except that it is slightly better. It has a silly, comedic timing mixed with some serious, violent scenes.

The audience was filled. I only speak English, but it had subtitles. They spoke rather fast, so I could not keep up with their words, but the scenes told the story. Basically, two detectives are on a hunt for gold and a murderer.

There is everything in this movie: a beauty queen, a tiny amount of sexiness, mobster actors, a straight man comedic partnership, racing scenes, dancing, excellent marital arts fights and beautiful scenes.

I have seen lot of Chinese movies, mostly garbage in terms of story line and quality of production. However this movie was quite well made movie. I'm impressed. Some people may don't like this movie because it is not right taste, but I think this movie was enjoyable and truly entertained. I recommend for who like comedy, action, thriller movie. I do not recommend if you like dark and serious movie.
