Review
by Kozo: |
I
apologize in advance for my lack of professional conduct in
regards to the cinematic wasteland known as Never Compromise.
This movie is complete crap.
It's produced by the world’s worst producer, Jackie Ma, who
doubles as the world’s worst actor too. Ma plays a random
associate of star Francis Ng in this pointless crime drama
about two old buddies (Francis Ng and Simon Lui) who kill
a family of 7 and are chased by clueless mainland cops. Zero
pacing and storytelling permeate this needless exercise masquerading
as crime drama.
Note to Francis Ng: why did you appear
in this film? This is possibly his worst performance ever.
Ng plays a complete psycho, and he brings zero nuance and
inner life to his moronic character. He simply bugs his eyes
out and does that Ugly Kwan voice. I weep, because Francis
Ng is actually a marvelous actor.
Continuing our lead sentence, Jackie
Ma appears in this film and he’s a truly uninteresting actor.
Matching him is the idiot playing the Interpol cop, who has
a pointless rivalry with Mainland cop Yu Rong-Guang, who also
phones this one in. The dialogue and interplay means absolutely
nothing here. Neither does the movie. (Kozo 2001) |
