Jacket Theme Masks Substance; Touchstone for Many Emotional Hotspots
From the title to the critique snippet, the jacket theme, probably intentionally, masks the film’s content.

Surreal but with pauses allowed by today’s technology, reflection and discussion can put the pieces together.

Weighty issue of firearms and violence handled most appropriately particularly from law enforcement point of view.

Despite my reality, it was difficult to identify with isolation of lead actor.

Excellent proof that Y2K did not thwart either artistic and worthwhile (fill in the blank.)

oddball whodunit
shot on a relatively low budget ($250,000), The missing gun is an oddball whodunit set in a small si chuan town that gives twin peaks a good run for its money. police officer ma shan embarks on a frenzied quest to regain his vanished weapon, hot on the heels of a nightlong drinking binge. the lost weapon of the title amounts to a technique to afford a glimpse into the town’s life, including some disturbing relationships, supposedly hilarious and quirky characters, and a couple of unscrupulous shenanigans. en route, ma shan learns more and more about his own existence and standing in society, slowly peeling away layers of encrusted routine, and even goes as far as almost rekindling his love for resident li xiaomeng. the plot thickens when li turns up murdered, shot with ma’s stolen pistol.

the story tries to build up towards a critical finale, yet you’ll find it difficult to become engrossed or even stay intrigued. many films bring humor and tragedy together – some beautifully, some a touch on the awkward side. The missing gun appears to have been unable to make up its mind which way to lean, resulting in wasted energy and an overall emptiness. although the opening is well executed, it is unfortunate that it does not manage to maintain a similar level of suspense throughout. a moving u2-like soundtrack helps improve its stock – and a global distribution deal with columbia pictures that has helped put billboard ads on the sides of every street – are unfortunately not enough to elevate The missing gun into classic-dom.
