A thrilling directorial debut from former DP Zhang Ji, this knotty romantic policier more than merits the imprimatur of executive producer Diao Yinan.

For a debut feature... Zhang Ji proves himself more than capable technically, and an exciting directorial talent to boot.

But the work seriously goes off the rails, descending into nearly grotesque suffering and mayhem. The social conditions are clearly not filmmaker Zhang Ji’s primary concern.

Rated: 2/4
