First off this is an excellent movie - way ahead of American Sci-Fi for heart and brain. It is a bit tedious to watch with subtitles but this is probably an advantage over a poor dub. Visually this movie is extremely derivative of Blade Runner but that doesn't detract from it's own brilliance. I love the fact that the line between good and evil is blurred and in that sense it is more true to life than most soulless western sci-fi pics. Be prepared for the love story - an element that many action viewers won't have patience for but this is a hallmark of the Asian film engine. Biggest drawback of the movie is the music score; which may be a factor of the culture of origin. It could have used a little techno to spice up the action (which is filmed beautifully by the way). If you are a REAL sci-fi fan, appreciate art in your cinematography, and consider watching a foreign language film you won't regret seeing this. We could use directors like this in the west.
