Visually impressive,

Summary

Hitchcockian exposition with a few eye-closing scenes and a bit of OTT martial arts fighting.

Full review

Sometimes I had to close my eyes (teeth being extracted etc) and some of the fight scenes were overly cartoonish, but the mise-en-scene was impressive and the unfolding of the plot was satisfying. Hitchcockian in that it keeps you too wrapped up in the lead character's point of view to see what in retrospect is obviously going on. Not suspenseful though.
