The movie
A blind detective blessed with an almost supernatural sense of deduction, a young female inspector haunted by the disappearance of a friend, a bloodthirsty serial killer… Add to that an offbeat, almost cartoonlike tone and a mix of genres typical of Hong Kong cinema, and you get Johnnie To’s new suspenseful comedy. Five years after Sparrow (NIFFF 2008), the director delightfully brings together once again Andy Lau and Sammi Cheng.
