Doesn't really deserve the hype
27 April 2010
It's pretty obvious the Pang brothers has been reading way too many Asian comic books, because the style of this movie is like some lame and mainly boring comic book with flashes of somewhat good. It's basically a low budget film that is mediocre at best that tries to be cool like some Asian comic book. Just about everything about this movie is pretty generic, except the hit-man in this is deaf. With it's plot of seeking redemption while living amongst death and violence. Everything is this if your a movie vet, you probably seen already except much better although I give the film props for capturing everything it had to it's advantage. It's basically a generic film that is getting more hype than it really deserve, if the film took place in the US instead of Bangkok people would not be so generous to it, although Bangkok is much more dangerous in some areas compared to the US. And if your looking for a HK style shoot em up or a engaging action movie you will be disappointed, this film is uneven at times as well.
