How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A stylized, operatic action film that trades realism for pure kinetic swagger, all neon-soaked motorcycle chases, leather-clad villains, and a hero drawn back into danger by romance. It's less interested in plot logic than in maintaining a constant hum of cool-guy tension and visual spectacle.
