Johnnie To's Drug War

I saw this movie for the first time three days ago. Johnnie To has outdone himself this time. The action is fast and brutal. I really liked all the different points of view in the film. Amazingly, you never get lost with what's going on. To does a superb job of keeping up with everything going on in the film.

Yes, looking forwards to this, heard good things.

Johnnie To seems to get better with every film.

He's super hit or miss for me. Maybe I watched too many of his movies too close together at first - but he repeats himself an awful lot. Of the ones I have seen, Sparrow strikes the best balance between silly and inexplicably, awesomely compelling. I like that movie very much

There was a time when I didn't dig his work but one day, for whatever reason the switch got flipped and I became infatuated. I guess I rebelled because everyone was telling me how great his work was. However, I agree, Sparrow is indeed an amazing film. I also really loved Life Without Principle.
