#LIMBO 2021 SERIAL#

To, already wracked with guilt, begs his forgiveness вЂ“- itвЂ™s explicitly his forgiveness she must earn - and offers to turn informer as recompense. ChamвЂ™s wife has been on life support since a car accident caused by young addict Wang To (Liu Cya), and when Cham spots To, whoвЂ™s just been released, the red mist descends and he pursues and practically kills her. Au Kin YeeвЂ™s screenplay certainly doesnвЂ™t. The only thing the victims have in common is drug abuse, otherwise they were вЂњsocial outcasts, nobody cared about them,вЂќ says Will, which is cool because that way we donвЂ™t have to care about them either.

Cham has just found another left hand, and when a left-hand-less third body shows up, they know itвЂ™s a serial killer case. TheyвЂ™ve been partnered to lead the investigation into the killing of a young woman whose left hand was found severed from her body. The two men are Will Ren (Mason Lee), the well-dressed newbie whoвЂ™s been installed in a senior position despite little practical experience, and Cham Lau (Lam Ka Tung), the rumpled long-timer whose gruff approach belies his keen detective instincts.

Appropriate, given one might spend quite some time hunting through the clutter for a point.

Anamorphic widescreen cityscapes buckle at the edges to cram in more detail sometimes the fish-eye effect gives a first-person-shooter vibe to a moving shot, and when the camera is still, Mak Kwok KeungвЂ™s exhaustingly maximalist production design looks like a hidden object videogame. Already here, DP Cheng Siu KeungвЂ™s dazzling black-and-white, hi-def photography hints it will be the movieвЂ™s MVP, delivering a classic urban noir aesthetic updated to the 4k digital age.
