Japanese filmmaker Kenji Uchida hit the jackpot when he wrote and directed in 2012 “Key of Life”, a clever, enjoyable and very applicable story of identity-swap between a looser and a sleek professional assassin, played by the star Teruyuki Kagawa. The film in fact, beside winning a bunch of awards, had a South Korean remake in 2015, “Lucky Key” starring the uber-popular Yoo Hae-jin in the lead role, and this year, a Chinese reboot opened successfully across China on Spring Festival (Chinese New Year Holiday), one of the busiest moviegoing periods in China, grossing a record 7.8 billion yuan only in the festival days. This newest big budget version is directed by Xiaozhi Rao after his 2018’s “A Cool Fish” featuring no other than Hong Kong icon and superstar Andy Lau (also credited as executive producer ) and Xiao Yang, recently seen in “Sheep Without A Shepherd”.
