Nothing is what it seems in this Casablanca-style international thriller set in the ancient Chinese city a week before the attack on Pearl Harbor. U.S. Secret Agent Paul Soames has just arrived to investigate the murder of his best friend, only to become quickly immersed in a web of conspiracy and lies that beset the city. Shadowed by a Japanese intelligence officer Tanaka, Soames' investigation quickly centers on a charismatic local gangster, Anthony Lanting - and Lanting's beautiful wife, Anna. Before long, Soames and Anna are involved in an affair that will put everything they have at stake. As national loyalties are traded fast-and-loose for those of the heart, Soames and Anna must race to solve the mystery and make it out of occupied China before the city's collapse.

    Viele Filme gibt's nicht aus den 30er-40er Jahren in dem von den Imperialstaaten besetzten Shanghai. Leider ! Denn, trotz allem Elend der zu leidendenden Bevölkerung und der ständigen Gefahr ums Leben, muss dieser Schmelztiegel der Kulturen in dieser Zeit ein faszinierendes Abenteurer gewesen sein. Fazit: Darstellung & Requisiten inkl. des Sets und CGI sind aussergewöhnlich gut gelungen, obwohl der Produktion oft etwas Artifizielles anhaftet. Die Geschichte ist nicht so kompliziert konstruiert und dennoch ist stets Spannung vorhanden. Mein Urteil ist natürlich dadurch beeinflusst, da ich J. Cusack und gut inszenierte historische Produktionen schätze. Sollte im O-Ton gesehen werden. Insgesamt empfehlenswert. Filmtipp: "The White Countess";"The Sand Pebbles"
