Film: Election by Johnnie To

The comparisons to The Godfather are inaccurate. If anything, Election and Triad Election more resemble Goodfellas.  But the comparisons are meaningless -- the films are not as strong throughout as the American classics. But the final scene of Election is so remarkable...I can think of nothing to compare it to other than 2001 Space Odyssey (hint: not the end bit).
