The movie
Three childhood friends end up in a bank vault while doing some works to expand their future restaurant. With money problems and gangsters on their tail, they decide to come up with a plan to steal the booty discreetly. Little do they know the bank is also about to get robbed by a band of criminals... The director delivers a superbly unpredictable thriller that makes good use of the Chongqing topography, turning a potentially bleak story into a very upbeat one.
