I was hoping to see some good Asian movie-making in this title, but there was none evident here. The story is about a young contract killer who does three things in his life mainly: kill people for money, have sex with almost every random woman he encounters, and meet various people for no apparent reason (his mother, his father, a drug dealer). There is almost no action in this movie and the plot advances very slowly and tediously, if one can admit of the existence of a plot in this case. The sound effects, especially these of the guns, are laughable. The dialog is delivered with a chilling indifference and at some point I started wondering if this was not a high-school project rather than a full-length movie. By all means do miss this movie, if you do not want to completely waste an hour and a half of your time. If you are in the mood for some high quality Asian action cinema, go watch The City of Violence.
