So (Asian) 00's it hurts, i mean, anyone who has watched these amazing Wong Kar-Wai movies of this era, for sure he will travel back, mentally, in time. Identity, existential crisis, desperately trying to find love in some hopeless places. As usually, there is a crime element in drama/romance movies like these. But this element is just supplementary and subordinate. This is a drama romance movie. Broken people in the midst of an existential crisis trying to find their way through life, even though the external difficulties and their inside walls are preventing them to do so.

It's a very good movie with some interesting turns. Not difficult to watch but still you've got to pay attention because things are not as they seem, at first. It's not a masterpiece. There are signs of brilliance but it's not brilliant nor mindblowing. So, if you find it interesting as it was described, watch it.
