Somewhere Beyond the Mist

Angela is a cop in charge of the murder of a married couple. Her father, who suffers dementia, has always been a pain in her neck. Sensitive from pregnancy, Angela discovers strange aspects of the murder while investigating Connie, a high school girl who turns herself in. Connie, born with a heart defect, is close with Eric, her gay classmate. Upset by her violent, perverted father and indifferent mother, Connie conspired with Eric to commit the crime. With Angela's crises-her husband, and her father with Alzheimer's-at its core, the film follows Connie's testimony on the shocking murder. The film resembles a documentary, rather than crime or detective movie, as it reenacts what has happened bluntly and faithfully. It is probably due to the director's background in documentary film. The opening sequences from the distant view of Hong Kong to a lone old man lost in the streets, and the dark and gloomy flashbacks from Connie's testimony read as the sentiment of today's Hong Kong.

This movie was just really good, there's no other way to put it.

Chit-Man Chan is great in roles like these, but the entire cast was as good as he was and the movie kept us on the edge of our seats the whole time.

There are very few films I can watch more than once. This is one I can.

This movie is surely one of the King-wai Cheung finest blend, it had everything that makes you glued to the seats and those nail biting moments.

I liked the movie. It's my first Zeno Koo movie and I will be looking for more of him.

I really liked it and Chit-Man Chan is soooo good!

I can safely say it is epic, on a visual and plot line scale! Rachel Leung freeman is always outstanding in his roles even in this film he proves it again in delivering excellent performance!
