Ruthless female lead, dark storyline
I can’t help but appreciate an asian cop film which portrays a ruthless and unsparing female lead in spite of being one of the “good cops”. Anne curtis is an underrated actress... she just gained a new fan today. Only complaint was that soundtrack did nothing for me throughout the film, it leaves no impression on me. The storyline could be improved as well, especially in the beginning, where Alvarez was introduced. The lack of any planning for such a risque operation that involves a “rookie” team was strange and unsettling as well. The film showcases the uncensored, cold hard reality of anti-narcotics operations and the grim fate of those who live in a slum. The grisly and macabre themes of the film is a plus for someone who is morbid.Was this review helpful to you?
