FILM REVIEW: Location, location, location

Lou Yi-an’s debut feature is a black comedy about the search for home, whether in this world or the next

By Ho Yi  /  STAFF REPORTER

As in God Man Dog, the story involving a young urban couple is the film’s weakest section, as the protagonist’s existential distress and torment comes across as more acted than felt. Theater and film actor Mo turns in a slightly stretched performance as a headstrong rocker. Actress Lu Chia-hsin brings the film’s watch-ability down several notches with her irritatingly expressionless face.
