Synopsis: Detective Bun (Lau Ching Wan) was recognised as a talented criminal profiler until he sliced off his right ear to offer as a gift at his chief's farewell party. Branded as 'mad' and discharged from the force, he has lived in seclusion with his beloved wife May (Kelly Lin) ever since. Strangely, Bun has the ability to 'see' a person's inner personality, their subconscious desires, emotions, and mental state. When a missing police gun is linked to several heists and murders, hotshot Inspector Ho (Andy On) calls on the valuable skills of his former mentor Bun to help unlock the killer's identity. However, Bun's unorthodox methods point to a fellow detective and take a schizophrenic turn for the worse...

Enthralling stuff from those Milkyway boys that's probably a bit too esoteric for the less-initiated. Still, this is as interesting, entertaining, and fabulously off-beat as Hong Kong genre films get nowadays. Lai Ching-Wan is terrific as the eponymous "Mad Detective". -- Kozo |
