Nowhere to Hide

*20 minutes in* There's no way they can keep this going. *1 hr 30 min later* Wheeeeeze... An exhausting ride with any number of cinematic cues and references thrust throughout the kinetic space.

Nowhere to Hide

“You have the right to have a lawyer and the right to remain silent. Ican't remember the rest, fuck.” Very much lo-fi in its execution, Nowhere to Hidetells the story of Detective Woo and his team on the trail of an elusive killer. It plays out like a sort of comedy / police procedural hybrid, and while it may not lack any style it’s definitely held back by its hard to follow story and obvious technical drawbacks.That being said, Nowhere to Hideis a surprisingly solid piece of entertainment and the directors commitment to his distinct visual flare is nothing short of commendable. The final fight is also wonderfully fun to watch, if not a little melodramatic.
