Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Sanjeev Waters A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

henhelena it has been a long time watching film doesn't leave any strong feelings to me... I left feeling conflicted, yet enlightened.. Perhaps one of the best Andy Lau's best performance in his acting career. Cecilia Cheung did a good job as well. There were some good action and a bit romantic scenes, there were some "strong' scenes that makes me freaked out as well,but I think it i necessary. The script and plot is great. Please make sure you watch the HK version not the Chinese cut. Go and watch for the experiences.

TheWrench Some people's distaste for this movie reminds me of the same distaste Last Action Hero received, except this movie is Chinese. I suppose people go in to this movie expecting something else. This movie is about an ex-martial arts monk who has strayed from his path to indulge in the pleasures of the flesh. But deeper within the character is his ability to see Karma, or the good/bad aura of life. In this movie it is represented in bits of each person's past life, and what evil or good they have done. Though it's true that Andy Lau's muscle suit really plays no part in the plot of the movie, it does give his character his unique personality. The movie almost plays like a television marathon with each different part of the movie starting some sort of danger. And then Biggie/Brawny (Andy Lau) having to save someone or intervene due to his knowledge of the coming events. I suggest anyone who is going to see this movie not go in to it expecting anything. I didn't, and I was surprised I liked it. It was entertaining and visually pleasing to the eye, and I think that was the main point of the movie.

Mark Greene I did not expect the depth that this film mines when buying tickets yesterday for "Running on Karma" starring Andy Lau. In fact, when it began, I cringed wondering how campy it could possibly be. This first impression quickly transformed as some special effects were artfully used to convey that I was in for fast and thought-provoking ride.The violence in the film stops just short of being gratuitious. In fact, it is quite purposeful and well done. As a whole, the film has a little of everything that attracts me: the supernatural, special effects, humor, love story and surprise, surprise, an actual heartfelt message that provides the viewer with 'the big picture' on life. I wanted to give the flick an 8.5/10 but opted for the 8 since this system does not take half points.By the way, seeing this film is Hong Kong has the added effect of illustrating one of the film's points: there are many layers to our day-to-day 'reality.' This may not have such a strong effect for the viewer who lives elsewhere.
