| Reeling ReviewsLaura CliffordThe climatic revelation of who's responsible seems plucked from the air, but Chuan's theme of memory reconstructed from external eyewitnesses is intriguing |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsLouis ProyectOffbeat film about a cop struggling for self-respect |
| Hollywood ReporterRichard James HavisViewers who thought they were watching a comedy will be left scratching their heads when it turns into a mundane murder mystery. |
| User ReviewValerie BA tongue-in-cheek comedy about a cop fighting for self-respect in a dinky little Chinese province. Pretty funny, a little weird and loopy at times, but also really cute. |
| User ReviewMary WVery nice and surprising movie, great soundtrack, superb camera work!! |

A clean break with the traditional style of the so called fifth generation, Lu's camera is never static as he literally jumpcuts his way through the film. But as the pace slows down after the frantic first half, so does my attention, and I'm left with a stylish, groundbreaking movie with a rather thin plot. |
