🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its humor not from punchlines, but from the relentless cause-and-effect of absurdity, where the protagonist's arrogance is his own undoing. It works with the precise rhythm and textures of everyday Hong Kong, turning mundane urban life into an insurmountable obstacle course for a disconnected man.

What lingers after the final frame is a sharp, satisfying satire on vanity and modern fragility, proving that the most humbling journey can be just a few miles long. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Simon Lui Yu-Yeung
