Must Watch

You’ll find the city of Taipei pulsing beneath a neon glare as two brothers wrestle for the shadowed throne. What sets this crime thriller apart is its melding of age‑old territorial codes with a tech‑infused approach to power. The film’s most arresting moment is a silent, rapid‑cut hallway chase that turns the skyline into a living, breathing set. Nevertheless, the third act falters when the stakes suddenly drop, causing the momentum to sputter. If you relish gritty urban storytelling that pushes the boundaries of conventional gangster tropes, you’ll savour every frame.
