Zhou chu chu san hai (2023)
The most interesting, engaging, well constructed gangster film I've seen in many years

Oh my goodness, this was incredible. So well constructed, so well executed, so topical, and with such a tiny and pure love story at its core. Can it stand up to the Godfather and Breaking Bad? I say yes. The acting is extraordinary, the sets are gorgeous yet perfectly apt, the writing is fluid and engaging, and the cinematography is so well done. There's fairly little violence for a gangster film: it's more about character development and backstory with really clever plot twists. What a thoroughly wonderful, entertaining film. I really can't recommend this one highly enough if you're a fan of crime sagas with complexity and depth.
