The Enigmatic Case Audience Reviews

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Mozjoukine Then TV director Johnie To's feature debut, a companion to the costume movie noir of the contemporary Hong Kong feature KILLER CONSTABLE, this one has a more realistic look and the action is quite convincing - less fantastic than the films made in front of it. In many ways it is a more interesting project that the director's later and more widely circulated work.After a jail break opening, the plot does a U-turn providing a new villain to add to the impact.Inventive pieces of staging like superior numbers driven back by the burning grass bundle on a fork run down the narrow alley.
