Under Control

Here's a film that understands the geography of love. A young woman travels to Hong Kong to find the author of a message in a bottle, only to find herself embroiled in the affairs of a conflicted businessman and a love triangle. The movie then asks: what if Hong Kong action cinema was also a rom-com?
