    Overly complicated and badly written

    At first seemed interesting but as the movie went on it continued to get complicated hard to follow and too much explanation of the plot. Probably even the writers and directors could not figure out what was going on so not only did they have to explain to themselves but also the viewer. Character development non-existent plot twists unnecessary and constant so it's hard to work out what the overall story is. Very disappointing a lacklustre film with a good idea poorly executed and poorly written even characters don't seem to care ending like the movie itself makes little sense. Do not watch!!

    A mind-bending plot that's well worth pondering alongside.

    It's truly disheartening to see this film expose the dark side of 'money talks' where even the police can be swayed. Aaron Kwok, who loses his girlfriend, finds himself surrounded by questionable colleagues, superiors, and current partners-all entangled in the desire for money through land redevelopment. Hong Kong cinema has always had a knack for depicting police corruption realistically, and I must say, the intense showdown between Louis Koo and Aaron Kwok, along with the plot twists involving Tony Leung Ka-fai orchestrated by 'Darker,' keep this film consistently engaging, a mind-bending plot that's well worth pondering alongside.
