Clevercell Very disappointing...

Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Greg Hine I was surprised at the lowish rating of 6.8 with all of the reviews being complimentary.I thought it was gritty and realistic throughout, the car chase at the beginning a little over top, and there were some chilling and tense moments.The linking together full circle was great, and surprisingly there was also some empathy for the main 'baddie'.Tse's performance near the end was heart wrenching and emotional.Lets put it this way, I will watch it again, and my family will be watching this tomorrow. 3:30 in the morning as I couldn't stop watching. Awesome

dumsumdumfai everybody is a film critic these days... sigh..well, this is, comparatively to other HK movies, and unexpectedly good movie. Tight plot, editing and story telling - but the balancing act of reasonable plot to the 'human story' is a bit over reaching for me. By human story, I mean what's behind the hired killers' story - that he has a sick wife, ... that ties in at the ending shot ... like Pulp Fiction or Babel. Oh boy.One of the cops, yells a bit too much for my tastes. And the little girl is really, super brave. The somewhat realistic acting, night scenes, day scenes does adds to the overall atmosphere and feel.But the English title is a bit over the top - also? The Chinese title is kind of mysteries and not fitting ??????

gludvig Just saw Dante Lam's Beaststalker at Seattle International Film Festival and loved it. Can anyone tell me why he chose that title? In other words, what is the significance of the name "Beaststalker"? I haven't seen "Beast Cop," but is there some kind of convention or genre in HongKong cinema that would explain it?To anyone who hasn't seen this film, I highly recommend it. The performances are outstanding, it's a real emotional roller-coaster, and is very cleverly put together. Here's hoping that the Americans don't try to remake it, as it would lose its real punch. The only good remake I've ever seen was "The Departed," and even that one didn't live up to the HK original.

gabridl This is the best Hong Kong cop thriller I have seen since "Infernal Affairs" and "Triad Election." All three films suggest critiques of Mainland China's relationship to Hong Kong chilling enough to raise them to a level of art. I expect a remake soon, although I don't think it will be as good as "The Departed."For those with no interest or awareness in contemporary Chinese politics, "Beast Stalker" works perfectly well as a thriller. But with a little reflection many contemporary Chinese films like this can be decoded as profound commentaries on the current situation in China every bit as trenchant as Sixth Generation dramas. This is a golden age of Chinese cinema. Don't underestimate what you see.
