Death Stranding (2023) User Reviews

Are you working your heart out to make money for someone else, or are you just a pawn being manipulated, even at the cost of lives

The first time I saw a pursuit gone wrong, with the car crashing into the airport terminal, and then a full-on 10-minute shootout and close-quarters combat inside the terminal - you can really see the dedication of the director and the entire crew. Eddie Cheung and Francis Ng facing off against Wallace Chung, it was like a real-life battle. Not just punches but also real falls with water splashing - definitely worth going to the cinema for. It's also a rare return for Wallace Chung to the big screen, and in terms of the plot, it's the familiar theme of money laundering in the world of organized crime. However, what sets it apart is the twist of manipulated individuals being turned against each other, highlighting the selfishness of the villains who only trust the dead won't betray them.
