Something of a cool mess "Exiled" is director Johnnie To's highly anticipated reunion with the principle cast (Ng, Wong, Cheung, Lam) from 1999's "The Mission." The net result is a bloated bag of poor decisions: "Exiled" mixes strong performances with pretentious passages of direction (not unlike To's own slightly superior "A Hero Never Dies"). The script is basically a giant homage to the western genre set in modern day Macau and is fun for a while but when To ultimately fails to do much with it you begin to wonder if supporting the industry on its shoulders has finally taken a toll on the scriptwriters at Milkyway Image.
