Synopsis
Detective Chinatown (唐人街探案, 2015) is a Chinese mystery-comedy with action, and you can watch online on iFILM. Director Chen Sicheng sends Qin Feng, a shy teen who just flunked the police academy entrance exam, off to stay with loud relatives in Bangkok.
His Uncle Tang is the neighbourhood's self-styled master sleuth, big on reputation and shaky on method. Barely off the plane, the pair end up the prime suspects in a murder: a stash of gold has vanished, a body is hidden, and both the cops and the local mob are closing in by the hour. Qin Feng's photographic memory and Tang's sheer nerve are all they have to unmask the real killer while dodging through Chinatown after dark.
The whole thing rides on the odd-couple chemistry between the quiet prodigy and the fast-talking chancer, and it cleaned up at the Chinese box office hard enough to launch a franchise. The puzzle plays fair — the answer is in plain sight, but you only catch it at the end. Good for fans who like a whodunit that keeps cracking jokes. Stream Detective Chinatown (2015) online on iFILM.
