此为以动荡的上海为背景拍摄的民初动作片，描述四名曾经一齐被俘虏的军人在解甲归田后各散东西，其中梁家辉做了上海的巡捕，他找来昔日战友李子雄、郑浩南一齐加入天罗地网小组，合力对付大毒贩，而此人正是昔日俘虏他们的军官郑少秋。导演黄志强采取鲜艳的映象设计和激烈火爆的动作场面来包装这部怀旧电影，使它的外观显得相当有吸引力，可惜故事未能摆脱同类电影的老套，以致形过于质。
Addressed to her 18-year-old daughter, the film delves into the patchwork psyche of today's young girls, connected to an infinite flow of ubiquitous Youtube tutorials (a formidable “expert” in just about everything and everything. anything, played by Julia Faure), Zoom discussions between girlfriends where we try to decide who is the coolest between Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer, dollhouses where Barbie and Ken discuss for long minutes on love and its multiple abjections… The film is placed under the auspices of Gilles Deleuze and his conference at La Fémis (“the Dream is a terrible will to power”), which has almost become a pop object in its own right with the internet.

Star, a suicidal teen now too old for foster care, develops a candid rapport with An, a student from Shanghai who is assigned to watch her while she is in hospital. A nightly exchange of secrets, text messages and possessions quickly expands the boundaries of their relationship, altering their inner chemistry. Gilded by a soundscape that interweaves work by emerging and pioneering electronic musicians, Queens of the Qing Dynasty is an offbeat ode to neurodiversity and genderqueer individuals who refuse to conform. Director Ashley McKenzie’s blend of formalism and gritty realism does not fail to surprise and treats the audience to flashes of visual and conceptual poetry. Her cast is entirely composed of first-time actors who convincingly convey how unique every individual is, both in how they see the world and how they relate to others. Ziyin Zheng in the role of An graciously embodies a mix of idiosyncrasy and frankness that makes them an ideal confidante for Star (Sarah Walker). They have what it takes to be on the receiving end of the scrutinising gaze of Star, who sees through conventions and never ceases to be amazed at life’s bewildering events. Veering on slapstick, Walker’s performance will not go unnoticed.
