A walloping nightmare of a coming-of-age crime story. The film has no qualms about putting its preteen heroine through more extreme trauma than a lifetime of therapy could ever hope to heal. Ana Sophia Heger is remarkable in the role, projecting both inner strength and premature world weariness.

A flick that seems to exist first and foremost to give Ringo Lam the chance to detonate every last blood squib in Asia. By no means am I complaining, mind you--Lam's like the squib Picasso. When the film's chief bad guy explodes in a crimson cloud at the climax, the moment's flat out transcendent.
