"Chinese Midnight Express" isn't really a bad movie - but it's far from being a keeper neither. Actually, I'm writing this review a couple of days after viewing the feature and have already forgotten most of it. Tony Leung is solid as always. Not many complaints in the acting department - except for the comic inserts. I have a problem with those comedy moments in Hong Kong (Action)thrillers anyway.
As for the story, it is your typical prison flick. Nothing special there neither - but all the known ingredients are present: Male rape, shower scenes, violence against newcomers, violence by guards etc. Only that some acts are way more humilating than I've expected. As for the violence, it is rather tame, so don't be scared by the DVD cover.
Would I recommend it? No. Again, it's a solid movie - but not worth your time. There's more funny / disgusting / suspenseful / entertaining (whatever you desire) Asian films around. Try those instead.
Rating: 4/10
