Shock Wave is "a lot"...maybe a bit too much?!?

Andy Lau does a very good job, but that isn't really a surprise, and even though the script leaves something to be desired (which is partly his own fault as he co-wrote it) Herman Yau has done a great job directing this. The rest of the actors did a very good job as well. The movie looks very good, and the sound is, for the most part, spot on.

But...

Shock Wave tries to be something that it's not, and it hurts the movie somewhat, but by being rather exciting and have actors that definitely knows what they are doing, it's not that noticeable as you are viewing the movie, but it becomes rather apparent as soon as you start to think about it.

Shock Wave is indeed exciting and has a lot of great and suspenseful action scenes. The thing is...it's a bit too long with bits that really didn't fit. I still liked it, but it won't end up on rewatch list any time soon.

Idolize a man is not a good choice for me
