LABEL 2 #2024香港电影湖南展映周# 影像很有质感，PTU队员走在深夜香港的街道上本身已有足够的美感，画面构图对人物关系的展现足见杜导功力；具体到文本就没有太多可圈点之处了，故事讲得过满反而让人失去了想象的空间。 Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/14/24 Full Review Audience Member The entire film takes place essentially over the course of one tense night as a group of cops race to recover the lost gun that could disgrace their team. The film almost feels shot o a set, as most of the action happens around deserted city streets with groups of police of thugs wandering about and encountering one another at varying turns. Good stuff, decent action bits. Well worth a rental. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member A skilled Director, Johnny To, a good "police and thieves" movie, a very good photography, all together make a good evening on the couch. The story is not new, but the elements are well blended; the late night atmosphere - the story starts and ends in the same night - in a dark Hong Kong recalls John Landi's Into the night... but without his humor. A good 3 stars movie, a dvd that worth the ten bucks ;-) Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member The longest night of the PTU, where the empty street of the city become the scenery for ordinary crime, ordinary corruption at every level:, where truth is the real victim but "life goes on". Works like a charm. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member good solid crime drama Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm not the most knowledgeable when it comes to Johnnie To films but I tend to enjoy the films I have seen. While I enjoyed PTU I found it far from perfect. I had a hard time trying to figure out what the point of the film was. What was the real drive behind each of the characters? Was this a film about Police corruption? Was it a crime drama? A comedy? There were just too many characters that seemed to be important but outside of the main character who loses his gun, they really aren't more than filler. This film could have been done as a 30 minute short with better results. There are glimpses here and there throughout the film that hint at the drive behind each character but nothing is truly fleshed out. I did enjoy the acting even if the characters weren't fleshed out enough. Either needed to be more fast paced or longer to add more depth to all the characters cause the end product was only "ok" in my books Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
