Line Walker (2016)
5/10
Not that good but a little bit enjoyable.

Shi Tu Xing Zhe aka Line Walker is a Hong Kong film that was released in 2016. As Hong Kong film, the language is Cantonese which makes me difficult to understand. And they didn't make it an official subtitle but the one I got had English subtitle, so, I could watched it.

The presentation is very good. That I must admit. Because I was blindly watching for 23 minutes. The film is about undercover thing. So, it indeed gives a different taste. But because of the poor presentation, I didn't like it that much.

I didn't know this movie until they filmed the second one in my country, Myanmar. Some parts of Shi Tu Xing Zhe 2 is filmed in Yangon, Myanmar six months ago. That's how I knew about this film. Because they filmed in my country, I've decided to watch the second film, but it doesn't out yet on DVD or something like that. So, I decided to watch this film to know what the film is all about.

Although the presentation is a bit confusing, the film is somehow enjoyable because of some twists it has. But it indeed forgot to explain some things. Thus, I'd say it's kind of inferior to the other action films.

Speaking of action, actually, it doesn't have that much action. I was expecting some actions, so, yeah, disappointed.

And also, I want to mention the title. When the film is finished, I realised that the title and the film are not the same. They gave the wrong title. If they have chosen the right title, it'd be better.

All in all, this film left some things unfolded, but for some times, it's enjoyable.
