Avg. Rating:
  3 / 5 (based on 2 ratings). What did you think of it?
Plot:Ming is an ice-cold killer, but tired of the risks, he wants to quit. His agent, who has broken the professional code of no personal involvement, persuades him to do one last job--with fatal results.
Overview:Originally intended to be a third story in his now classic Chunking Express, Fallen Angels has emerged as what some critics have come to consider his "quintessential work." Set in the neon- washed underworld of present day Hong Kong, Fallen Angels intertwines two exhilarating tales of love and isolation. First, there's the unconsummated love affair between a contract killer (Leon Lai Ming) and the ravishing female agent (Michele Reis) who books his assignments and cleans up after his jobs. When the killer decides that he must move on, he leaves her with only a coin for the jukebox and instructions to play song number 1818 ­ "Wang Ji Ta" ("Forget Him").

Ex-convict Ho (Takeshi Kaneshiro) stopped speaking at the age of five after eating a date expired can of pineapple. He lives with his father, who runs a guesthouse where the agent is in semi-permanent residence. Ho makes a living by re-opening shops that have closed for the night and intimidating customers into buying goods and services from him. After an awkward romance with a girl named Cherry, Ho Finds himself all the more aloneÉ Wong Kar-Wai brings these parallel storylines together in a blitz of ultra-hip style and classical cinematic sensibilities. A poet of modern alienation, Kar-Wai's universe is populated with characters both dark and comic, magical and existential; Fallen Angels is both a vie at revolutionary cinema and an homage to a love for movies.
