This is a very haunting movie. Tension filled, poignant and tragic. Danny Boyle is the director. Excellent, recommend viewing.

6.5 out of 10
I love the Hong Kong location of this movie, the fact that the main character actually does speak some Cantonese in the movie and many of the supporting characters are international. I also love the premise. The world it exists in is very interesting and I also very much like how
SPOILER FOLLOWS
the main character doesn't suddenly realize his potential and becomes a superhero and saves the day. He remains very human, very vulnerable, with a few breakthroughs from time to time, but triumphs by thinking his way through their predicament.
