Good Story

I had the pleasure of watching the film Shanghai Story. Having no prior knowledge of the plot, characters, actors or director I didn't know what to expect.

Imagine my excitement when I was pleasantly surprised by what I had just watched.

The plot was engaging, suspenseful and kept me on the edge of my seat. A lot of independent, smaller films lack coherent story lines and plot holes are numerous. Shangai Story was the exact opposite. The timeline of events played out smooth and natural. Kudos must be given to the writer.

The characters were dynamic and multifaceted. The dialogue was real and again natural. Kudos must be given to the writer, director and actor.

With a running time of just under half an hour it is not a time consuming experience. I recommend the film to anyone who is looking for an entertaining night in.
