Ji hap chong see: Gung sam

THE FINAL JUDGEMENT is a courtroom drama from Hong Kong that manages to pack in about half a dozen tonal shifts in the course of its running time. It has sleazy crime elements, police procedural investigation scenes, overwrought melodrama and some amusing courtroom moments to boot. The end result is a film that feels all over the place and wild at times. Simon Yam plays a guy wrongfully accused of murder, similar to Hitch's THE WRONG MAN, and the film charts the consequences both on him and wife Cecilia Yip, who has a young daughter in tow. This is a notably well-cast movie, featuring supporting roles for Bill Tung and Paul Chan, and it's based on a true story as well, but in the end it's a bit too low budget to be properly successful. Those Aussies in the cast are hilarious!
