This is the second movie starring ANDY LAU in which he wears a prosthetic suit. As in his previous film, Love on a Diet, he also wore a fat suit. In this movie, however, he wears a muscle suit. This movie is a mish-mash of genres and ends up being a well thought out Buddhist parable about the nature of karma. Although uneven and sometimes over the top, at heart it is about acceptance and the nobility of forgiveness.

I think it's a very meaningful show. 因果 = karma.

You are a japanese soldier, you kill and decapitate many innocent people. In your next life, you're a police woman. You die horribly because of the sins you accumulated in your previous life. But you don't know why because you don't know who you were previously.

Is it fair?

My mom once told me, if you're unfilial and disrespectful to your parents, you will have children who will do the same to you cus it're retribution or karma. So the children are bad. So what? they will have children who are bad too? and it goes on? but they're innnocent cus they exist to serve as your retribution.

Is it fair?

Therefore, people say you should just accumulate good deeds instead on harp on these sins. Does it work? It didnt work in the show! She still died!

hahhaa ya something worth thinking about..
