Surprisingly good film and Edison ain't bad.
|
This film caught me by surprise, it is one of those films that you don't know what to expect, especially one containing Edison Chen, but to be fair it is actually really good. If you go in wanting to watching some kung fu action then you will be disappointed for this film is firmly based on realism so there is none of the fancy stuff, instead the action is violently brutal. Edison excels in this picture as the silent killer (but one can't help thinking it is because he is not given much dialogue) and Sam Lee does a decent job as the relentless cop if not a bit miscasted. The story is down to earth gritty and this is reflected with the excellent cinematography of the constant use of darkness. There is always tension and the director keeps the pace moving with the only letdown being at the end of the film in which is overly long and when you think it is going to end the next scene pops up. This could be so that the director could round of with an underlying message. Intense, brutal, clever and good performances. |

What a film!!
| Think HK cinema is just all kung fu and gun fights? Then think again... Dog Bite Dog is an amazingly dark and violent movie, that surprises its viewer in every scene and carries fantastic performances from its two lead stars, and co-stars respectively! I don't want to say anymore... you need to put this in your basket now! Well - go on then!! |

| This movie reminds me of Muay Thai..only it's more intense and brutal. Although most of the time i ended up closing my eyes or placing my hand in my eye to cover it, the scenes really calls for it. This is something that is worth watching. For me, Edision Chen really did a wonderful job. |

Watching Soi Cheang's Dog Bite Dog is like receiving a blow to the head with a heavy, blunt object. Its unrelenting nihilistic style will no doubt be a turn off for some, but those who manage to stick with it through the strong violence will find a film that manages to consistently shock and engage the audience thanks to some well-timed and well-performed moments of humanity and weakness. Performances from Edison Chen and Sam Lee are both excellent (surprise surprise for Edison Chen), with Sam Lee's rogue police officer coming away slightly better thanks to more dialogue. His obsession with catching Edison Chen's silent hitman after he brutally murders a police officer questions not just the brutal nature of police tactics, but the brutal nature of the human experience. Things come full circle in the climactic scene which is tragic and heart-wrenching without being forced. Thematically, Dog Bite Dog is an ugly film. People are shot, stabbed, savagely beaten, run over, and strangled. There are few moments of brevity, and those that are in the film are emotionally overshadowed by inevitable confrontations. With this film, Director Soi Cheang shows us that the world is not a light romantic comedy. The world can be a very, very ugly place. |

a GOOD Edison Chen movie?!!!
a GOOD Edison Chen movie?!!!
| Edison Chen totally blew me away in this movie! Didn't really expect much from him (after watching his previous roles), but this movie proved me wrong. His character was acted out so well and he fits the role like a glove. Sam Lee was ok too. But since i've always pictured him as a funny guy, it took some time to get used to watching him in a serious role. The story is very good: eyes glued onto the tv screen the whole time. A very violent and sad film...in a good way. Overall, this movie is really worth checking-out.. |
