A lot of nonsense and hysterics strung together, lacking clarity and never really yanking our emotions one way or another. Instead of resolving its mysteries, it piles on filler to a two hour length. By the end, it descends into complete nonsequiturs and whimsy. Any attempt at allegory to PRC rule fails by being an unsubtle mess.

After finishing it and hating it, I read several reviews and analysis from HK natives and realized it wasn't for or about me (white American). It's good that this film exists, and it has its moments, but it is not something that really translates.

While I wasn't really impressed with the way that it wrapped up, the concept and the journey there was a pretty engaging story. It was intriguing and interesting.
