Featured review
Not a story I was aware of. Well acted, probably cut down a bit for time like most films. The key characters are reasonably well explained, perhaps one fringe character isn't, but they are being used for effect. It's done well, but moves fast towards the finish....which makes sense considering the mental health of the main character.....it doesn't dwell on the stuff that is thrown in to pad it out. Also I like that it doesn't create overly sympathetic characters, nor monsters. It's not a faithful to every detail biopic, it's going for a feeling of what happened and possibly why it happened

Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe final entry in the film's closing credits consists of the words "For Herbert". Herbert Wong was Tom Dong's real name.
- GoofsSteve Driver in reality was unable to try and attack Eric Joven (Eric Long in the movie) after he badly injured Chris Rachel and killed Herbert Wong. He didn't do that only because a nearby business owner named Yuri Drell used martial arts to slam Driver into a wall (suffering a wound that needed 23 stitches to close) and a stunned Driver ran out and drove away without trying to kill Eric specifically.
