Fallen Angels

This gets better with every watch, or maybe it is more like the more Wong Kar Wai movies I watched the more I enjoy this film. It is the epitome of WKW style. A dreamlike atmosphere with wild and innovative camera angles, unique and phenomenal cinematography accompanied by a similarly dreamy score, jump cuts, a whole bunch of voice overs and a tragic tale about love and everything that has to do with it. I especially came to appreciate the overstylized shootout sequences, but I simultaneously came to realize what my one problem with the film is. It is that I love the hitman storyline too much and every time the movie moves away from that I feel a bit disappointed, even if the other storyline is phenomenal as well.
