Review of City of Ghosts

2/10
Total Nonsense(spoiler)
11 June 2004
Warning: Spoilers
Whilst there is some good scenes and acting in this film, the story is on the whole totally preposterous and nonsense. The writer obviously has no proper knowledge of either con artists or people in this part of the world. The writer experts us to believe that: 1. A con artist who has participated in stealing millions from people would suddenly see the light and give away his fortune to some taxi driver; Furthermore: 2. Anyway who is familiar with this part of Asia knows that a taxi driver with such good English would steal all he can from any foreigner; 3.And the climax of the film is money given away for charitable purposes but in reality it would be pocketed greedily by a local. Once again the film industry is telling lies to the public. In what the writer sees as a romantic and Hollywood style ending what in fact he is doing is simply adding more nonsense to a movie overlaid with it. 2 out of 10.
