I wonder....

what his budget was on that film?
He must be well connected, politically speaking, to be able to show the authorities in such light. In more than one case they come off as powerful buffoons. Not to speak of the larger comment on the cultural and environmental tragedy.
You're right. I stopped action time after time just to study a scene composition.
Also, he has a keen, absurd sense of humor.....witness the UFO, the building blasting off into the atmosphere, the timing of the controlled blast dropping the skyscraper. This last scene was breathtaking in its lead-up.
One of my favorites from the past few years.
On the Netflix disc I received, there was an extra feature, Dong, a tasty documentary about a contemporary Chinese painter/visual artist. Very beautiful and informative. From the same director, I assume.
