Aroview: Thai new waver Pen-ek Ratanaruang directs this zen-like "Buddist noir" about a hitman who seeks enlightenment after a bullet to the head permanently inverts his vision. Elegant but violent images and a spiritual tenor transport the familiar material to a whole other realm.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) The screenplay jumps around in time - back and then forward again except maybe a bit to the side from where we were before before going back again but not as far back as we were before - with a few time warps thrown in. Not sure the effort was worth it. ~Tubbs
