Audience Member What was I thinking when I picked this up? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member I'd love to see a well done English translation of this film. The subtitles are pretty difficult to follow and there is no English audio option. However, this take on Men In Black is typical fun from director Andrew Lau, featuring regular cohort, Hong Kong mega-star Andy Lau. The CG work is pretty bad, though. And because it's set in San Francisco, you get to hear the English language tortured a lot by the likes of Shu Qi, as well as a lot of bottom rung English speaking actors who stumble over their relatively simple lines. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A very poor attempt to beat Hollywood at his own speciality. The result end up looking like a poor B movie barely worthy of a TV slot. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie's special effects are ok, you can see worse on the Sci Fi Channel. As far as Shu Qi is concerned...need I say more that excellent? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member The cast works hard, but can't pull off this rip off of Men In Black and The X Files. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member A truly terrible film that merits a full star only for its occasional inadvertent humor.
