Review of Exiled (2006) by Kevin " — 20 Mar 2007

After just watching this film, I can't think of a word to describe it. So I will make one up, scrumptulecent, this film was scrumptulecent!! I see the comparisons and why most say it is The Mission II, while it has the same premise of friendship, this movie does so much more.

The action is stylized with many memorable shoot out scenes, even the simple opening apartment one was amazing and that was just a short small one. But Exiled has a more emotional hit that The Mission didn't deliver.

Well I should say, a more extreme emotional hit, The Mission did have one. This movie shows just how good of a director Johnny To is and that he has put everything he has learned into one complete package.

I can't wait to see where he goes next, although he has put a hard task ahead of himself after this one.
