Superstar action director Johnny To's Hong Kong gangster picture Triad Election (aka Election 2) revolves around Jimmy (Louis Koo), a second-tiered triad member vying aggressively for the position of godfather in the current election. He is restrained in his pursuits by the current mob boss, Lok (Simon Yam), who wants to hold on to his seat, despite the fact that his two years are up and he isn't officially eligible for reelection. This leads to a bloody, cutthroat, do-or-die battle of wills between the two men, carried out in some of the most astonishing set pieces ever constructed for an action opus, including a psychotic interrogation with knives and rabid dogs, a hide-and-seek battle at an outdoor café, and a shocking, ultraviolent denouement. To ads an additional level to the film by turning it into a scathing critique of the voraciousness encouraged by a laissez-faire economic system. Wong Tin-lam, Yao Yung, Lam Suet, Nick Cheung, Lam Ka-tung, and Mok Sing-lun co-star. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Some New Trailer For Triad Election (Hak se wui yi wo wai kwai)
New Review For Movie Triad Election (Hak se wui yi wo wai kwai)
The film's violence erupts in rare, staccato bursts, all the more horrifying for coming out of nowhere.Ty Burr-Boston Globe
If Machiavelli's The Prince and Sun Tzu's The Art of War translate to other centuries and cultures, so might Election and Triad Election.
Bill Stamets-Chicago Sun-Times
[Director To's] talent for documentary-style realism and navigating complex political systems sets him apart, though his nationalism puts him squarely in the mainstream.
Robert K. Elder-Chicago Tribune
The movieâ(TM)s most powerful component is political.
Ben Kenigsberg-Time Out
This remains a well-crafted genre movie, and one that promises further developments in its final scene.
Terry Lawson-Detroit Free Press
Dense, demanding concentration, lacking any romantic (but plenty of sordid) violence, extremely involving and rewarding of careful attention.
Stephen Hunter-Washington Post
Director To doesn't sacrifice substance to style. The over-the-top violent flourishes, more psychological than paint-the-screen-red literal, will burrow under your skin.
Betsy Sherman-Boston Phoenix
Whatever he lacks in narrative drive, To is still the master of style.
Amber Wilkinson-Eye for Film
Drips with a thick, Stygian darkness, but also offers violence that's too explicit and willfully perverse to be thoughtfully disturbing. . . . a little too overwrought, too operatic after its regal predecessor.
Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada)
The exposition is perfectly balanced with bloody action and muscular set-pieces.
Justin Bowyer-Empire Magazine
If it is too stylistically modest to win converts among the multiplex crowd, the film surely rewards followers of the genre.
Marrit Ingman-Austin Chronicle
tackles big ideas like the preservation of tradition and the overall reach of destiny, but also slyly suggests that the Triad of the 21st Century has evolved into something like a giant corporation.
Ted Murphy-Murphy's Movie Reviews
If you're willing to do the work, Triad Election pays you in tragedy.
Mike Russell-Oregonian
... exhibit A in the case for the Hong Kong gangster film as the new genre standard.
Sean Axmaker-Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Shameless pulp it may be, but to watch it is to see a master craftsman continuing to refine his talent.
Andrew Wright-The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Into a season of Hollywood blockbusters, this import arrives with the impact of a high-velocity bullet.
Pam Grady-Reel.com
Reveals [director] To as a master of lean, close-quarters action.
