better than chungking, imo
CHUNGKING EXPRESS is one of my all time favorite films, with its inventive camera work, charming characters, and wonderful atmosphere. However, its overuse of a song (You know which song) kinda brings the whole thing down, and I find the film doesn't owe itself to endless rewatches.
...Unlike this film which has all the best things about Chungking but adds in the mix eyepopping colors and great action sequences and bizarre, insane, awesome editing.
I love both films but I NEVER hear anyone mention this film being better than Chunging which surprises me a bit.
