I fell asleep...
Chris Huo's "The Comeback" is a Hong Kong crime action flick that had me dozing off a few times. The plot centers on Uncle Hua, a well-respected guy in his community, who finds himself in hot water when the local Qinglong Gang starts tearing down the old street for real estate. Things take a turn when Uncle Hua discovers six bodies, seven passports, and some guns hidden in the walls of his antique shop, which leads to him being chased by a shadowy group run by Ajie.
The storyline feels pretty tangled and all over the place, making it hard for viewers to really get into it. The characters, including Uncle Hua, don't have much depth, which makes it tough to feel any real connection with them.
The action scenes are nicely choreographed, but they don't really bring anything fresh to the table. The cinematography and editing are visually appealing with bright colors, but the pacing of the film is pretty uneven.
While it might entertain die-hard fans of the genre, it probably won't stick with you for long.
