Film: Detectives vs. Sleuths 

Needed to wash off the stink of Barbie so I watched this insane Hong Kong action film that 100% deserves a nomination for a holy fucking shit movie of 2022. Question: can a holy fucking shit movie also be good? I think so, but could see a debate on the issue. This movie is somewhat close to being good but engages in a familiar problem with Chinese action films - a complete lack of characterization in favor of "twists." Still, the main character is a paranoid who believes he is the "chosen sleuth" meant to solve all the botched cases within a corrupt police department. He also sees demons. In my language that translates to "you had me at hello."
