Tianjin Mysteries Affair stands out in the ongoing saga with its gritty portrayal of crime in 1950s Tianjin. The film dives into the tense atmosphere of the police station where the team grapples with moral dilemmas and the underbelly of society. The pacing is deliberate, allowing those moments of suspense to build effectively. While the direction is, well, let's say, not the most renowned, the performances by the cast bring a certain authenticity to their roles, especially the portrayal of the notorious drug trafficker known as 'Big Sc'. Practical effects are minimal but serve their purpose in grounding the story. It's a film that offers insight into a specific time and place, making it distinctive in the crime genre. Worth a watch for anyone interested in regional cinema.
