Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of people who'll be humming afterwards and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop.
- What might put you off
- It's in Cantonese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1964: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
The Rainbow Pass is a Chinese Opera starring Sammo Hung in a child role
