I was given the chance to sit down here in 2020 to watch "Mortician". Needless to say that I jumped at the chance, as I thoroughly enjoy the Asian cinema. Granted, I hadn't even heard about this movie prior to sitting down to watch it, so I had no idea what to expect.
Well, while the movie definitely was watchable, I must admit that directors Kong-Hon 'Cub' Chin sort of came up with something that just fell shortly out of my spectrum of interest. Yeah, I watched the entire movie, but I wasn't particularly impressed, nor can I say that "Mortician" proved to be properly entertaining for me.
The storyline was just a bit too strange and far fetched for me to fully grasp and enjoy it. And that was essentially why the movie fell short with me.
It should be said that the movie's cast were doing good jobs, and it was quite nice to watch Sui-man Chim show up here, as he was quite good.
All in all, "Mortician" lands a very mediocre five out of ten stars from me. It was watchable, but it wasn't a great movie. I doubt that I will ever be returning to watch it a second time though.
