اچھی فلم!

Brilliant acting from lead actors couples with John Woo styles action makes this a personal action movie favourite of 2018. Long live Gun-fu

It's reallt good. It's been awhile Hong Kong . Played with your mind that you had to rewatch it again . Interesting from beginning till end.

Not being prejudiced but since I don't know many of good Chinese movies this one is for once a good action movie with an excellent cast. The story might be déjà-vu but nonetheless it's an entertaining movie with a fair amount of twists and turns, some good action scenes, and for a movie of this length never boring moments. In China they counterfeit about anything they want and watching them counterfeiting the American dollar is an interesting story to watch. Chow Yen Fa is the most famous actor of the cast, at least to us occidentals, but the rest of the cast did also a good job with their characters. For once a Hong Kong production that felt right, without any overacting like we're sometimes used to when it's an Asian movie.

Poor acting from westerner actors. Unrealistic fight scenes, good story and emotional touch though

Average remake of the Usual Suspects, with a shoehorned and unconvincing "moral" ending to show that bad guys never prosper.

No one can deny how Chou is important in HK movie in 80s. You cannot imagine that he is actually an unimportant role in the whole story :) It is not that kind of traditional police and gangster movie with only boom and block buster. The process of counterfeiting cash is also new to audience, at least to me! The mystery of "painter" is well worth discovering as the plots goes on. It is not simply about split personality as the usual movies, which is unable to finish a complete story without it. The ending matches "counterfeit" pretty well, given 90% of movies is talking about how they successfully cheat and hide. The idea of the story is awesome! However, 2 points are deducted for ending. Don't know if it is for the reason to be on publicly for all audience. The final explosion seems unnecessary. This movie still gives us hope as Infernal Affairs: HK movie is not dying. Looking forward to the sequel! (I believe there will be)

Definitely one of the most enjoyable Cantonese Movie I ever watch for the past few years! Strongly recommended to anyone
