The Bullet Vanishes (2012) - 108 min


The Bullet Vanishes is a Hong Kong-Chinese mystery film directed by Lo Chi-leung.
Starring Nicholas Tse, Lau Ching-wan, Yang Mi, Boran Jing & Wu Gang.
Song Donglu is a prison police officer who is very friendly with all the Prisoners and also has a brilliant mind to solve cases. He got promoted as a detective and posted in a town where crimes are high. Donglu team up with a local cop Guo Zhui to solve the case of vanishing bullets. The victims were shot, but the bullets are missing from their body.
Like Sherlock Holmes, the logic explanation scenes were very good and also some action scenes that come from nowhere. Apart from this, the film has good sound effects and gorgeous frames. The pace of this mystery movie was constant and visuals tells the remaining things. Both Ching-wan and Tse delivers a stylish performance and loved it. Overall, it's a good investigation movie even though some scenes were inspired from Sherlock Holmes movies.
Verdict: Good
