MISSING 深海寻人



Went to watch Tsui Hark's MISSING 深海寻人 at Downtown East earlier.

I felt that it was more of a psychological thriller than a horror flick. In fact there were so many twists to the plot, and so many so-called endings to which the movie never quite ended. And that put even more question marks into my mind.

From a hopelessly romantic story start, an eerie horror twist, then psychologically challenging endings. But, the way the movie was shot, the direction was not typical of Tsui Hark. Something was different. Sadly, the storyline was not as good as the TV trailer. But at least the underwater scenes was interesting enough, although it would be better if they filmed the Yonoguni Island ruins. Computer special effects was also interesting. Fiery ghosts... hmmm...

Anyway, after the movie, we ended up at Carl's Jr Playground @ Big Splash for supper. That place was quite happening. Quite crowded. I think maybe next time if we need to take people out for seafood and drinks, we'll go there.

P/S: I love the theme song of MISSING. Sung by Li Xin Jie.
