Wong Kar-wai's directorial debut and a solid debut at that. Got a few interesting characters, a compelling narrative and though Chris Doyle isn't around yet, the cinematography is handled by Andy Lau, so the camera work is all well and good. We also already see certain trademarks that Wong Kar-Wai would develop and use in later films. Overall, it's little more conventional than his other work but still a very enjoyable film.
***1/2
