The directorial debut of the cinematographer of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which looks like anything but the directorial debut of the cinematographer of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Good characters, bad characters, a hunt for a relic, adventure in the desert. A clichéd screenplay, unimaginative directing and boring acting. And the fiery climax, or rather the technical execution thereof, is perhaps a bad joke. The Touch would have been a fiasco even in the 1980s. ()
