The Mission (1999)
8/10
Buddies in Hong Kong!

For the life of me, I have no clue why I added this to the watchlist...but I trust "me" from the past and also wish to thank him because this was pretty cool...like in the cool way.

It takes its time, that's the important thing. It lives room to breath, even in the action scenes. Cool music is playing, the camera is moving slowly, the actors are mostly posing, firing sporadically and calculated. And contrary to popular belief, they are not one-shot-men, they miss, they make mistakes...all while keeping their cool 😎 . Guess what I was whistleing at the end?

I liked this Hong-Kong gem and will look for other Johnnie To creations.
