Influenced by the films of Kurosawa, Johnnie To Kei-fung puts his unique visual sensibility on full display in one of the director's most acclaimed films. The simple story of five gangsters brought together to protect a gang boss from assassins is told with masterfully composed images and brilliantly directed gunfights that emphasize tension and character dynamics over gunshots. Featuring memorable set pieces such as the shopping mall shootout and a humourous paper football match in an office hallway, The Mission easily deserves a place in the Hong Kong cinema hall of fame.
