Synopsis
Wong Kar-wai's Fallen Angels is a sequel of sorts to the director's 1994 U.S. breakthrough Chungking Express. Expanding on the latter's style, themes, and mood, Fallen Angels is set in the surreal milieu of urban, nighttime Hong Kong. As with the filmmaker's other features, plot takes a back seat to mood. The wisp of a narrative intercuts two story lines. The first follows a hitman (Leon Lai) who finds that the assassin's life has slowly lost its allure. Complicating his life is his beautiful contact (Michele Reis, a former Miss Hong Kong winner) who pines after him with fetishistic ardor, although the two have never met in their nearly three-year partnership. In another part of the city, He (Takeshi Kaneshiro), a mute, boyish ex-convict, makes a living by sneaking into and running businesses after hours. Still living with his father who runs the Chungking Mansions hotel, the restless Ho falls for Cherry (Charlie Yeung), a woman getting over her breakup with the offscreen Johnny. The movie follows these episodic romances almost half-heartedly as with Wong's other films, and digressionary moments attract much of the camera's distracted gaze. This visually stylish and unabashedly effusive work is considered by some critics to be the quintessential Wong film.~ Elbert Ventura, All Movie Guide

Cómo ya he dicho en muchas ocasiones, con lo fan del Slasher que soy, hasta me gustan los que son más malos que pegarle a un padre con un calcetín sudado, pueden tener su aquel dentro de todo, pero esta se me ha hecho muy lenta y aburrida, las muertes dejan bastante que…

tmsmnzzAug 8, 2026The first half of the movie is surprisingly decent. Like, I was actually genuinely surprised that it was good. Unfortunately, it gets really dumb in the third act. And what the heck is Michael Ironside doing in this? He's really wasted in a nothing role. Ah, well.

libélulaJan 30, 2026This is not a good movie at all...HOWEVER, this was delightful 2000s slasher trash (and I use the word lovingly). If you like stuff like Ripper:Letters from Hell or The Pool, you need to check this out. The Director's cut is on YouTube and it really is something to behold.
