Action packed, thrilling, and very beautifully shot, “The Four” takes the audience into the corrupt world of those who seek power attempting to overthrow those in power.
Like an old story unfolding on the screen, the audience gets the lay of the land during the opening credits. Much like the beginning sequence of credits for “The Italian Job” (2003), the opening credits for “The Four” demonstrates how the “Divine Constabulary” operates as a team, the secret service of that society. The audience is then introduced to ‘Department Six’, the CIA of their day. The characters weave an intricate web of power struggles and self-validation before the end of the movie, where the bad guy, An Shigeng (Wu Xiubo), disappears into the night, a cliffhanger of sorts for the audience to wonder about and anticipate resurfacing again in the sequel
