The Flick: I love it when originality rears its beautiful head.  "Accident" is so interesting, so unique and so utterly captivating that it’s seriously near flawless.  Heading up a gang of professional killers who skillfully make their hits look like accidents, lead man Louis Koo (he of "Election" fame!) as quiet but cunning Brain gives one engaging ‘can’t take your eyes off him’ performance that only serves to enhance the brilliance this one already has in spades.  Plus going from a "Mission: Impossible" for real style to a nuanced and creepy "One Hour Photo" like obsession story angle makes for one unforgettable cinematic experience. (And it's not surprising that Johnnie To produced this one - he knows greatness!)  Looking for a skillful movie with the goods to back it up?  No happy accidents here – the brilliance is very much on purpose.  

Best Feature: The engaging 'Making-Of Featurette' is a super tasty one-stop shop doc that covers everything from interviews to inspirations.

Best Hidden Gem: Again, in a low-key and internalized piece of work, actor Louis Koo is the seasoning to "Accident’s" filet mignon excellence.

Worth the Moola: Shout! Factory is more known for toons, bots and TV shows – welcome them five-star international fare folks.
