NZIFF: Let the Bullets Fly

Let the Bullets Fly


Machiavellian 1920's Chinese gangster warlords play political chess with each other as they trade chapter and verse of Sun Tzu's 'Art of War'. Lot's of death, vast amounts of vengeance and enough cloak and dagger shenanigans to make Shakespeare look like a one dimensional plot writer. A splendid rollick of genres that seem to clash madly against each other at first, but the pure enjoyment of the entire cast and another sterling performance by Chow Yun Fat ensures a good time had by all.
