6.5/10
I've heard this is quite different from the rest of Jia Zhangke's work and maybe it was a bad place for me to start because I was expecting quite a bit more. A series of vaguely related stories that eventually come together in a loose way by the end, all concerning money and violence, and most ending rather tragically. My interest slipped as the film went on - the first few characters we met were interesting but by the end I was sort of sitting there thinking, "is this all there is?". I didn't dislike it but I can't say I was too blown away either.
