Hello, I will be your reviewer for the rest of this paragraph. As your reviewer, I can tell you that this thriller is one of the best of its kind ever produced anywhere in the world, and you will not be bored. In fact, you will be superbly entertained. The bad news is that, as your reviewer, I cannot tell you precisely how they pulled this off. Let me be clearer -- these sorts of "team" cop shows have been around since the 1930s G-Man pictures. In the 60s we had Mission Impossible with a dozen knockoffs in the decades that followed. Robert Redford liked this specific format a lot and did one or two in this vein. Still -- this is the point -- you have never really seen a "task force" cop film until you have seen this one. Somehow this film offers a perfect balance -- enough idiosyncratic characters to form a connection; yet simultaneously enough technology and team action to make the experience more like a sports movie (any team sport) than a simple crime film. In the west, we glorify the individual. In the east, not so much. Perhaps that is the secret? But one thing for sure - great film.
