Thanks a lot! You're maybe sorry to hear but your review made my interest increase a lot. A film which cannot decide wether it want to be Romance or Horror - that sounds intriguing (I'm almost always intrigued if people criticize that a film cannot decide to which department it wants to belong - the same was also true with South Korea's "The Host" which received many mediocre or even bad reviews - I loved it...). And since I saw "Sparrow" at the Berlinale, I'm also convinced that To is as virtuosical at (Romantic) Comedies as in Gangster films. 

Beside the masterful "PTU" and "Sparrow", I've also seen "Breaking News", imo the weakest of those three. But I'm already in love with his style, his point of view, his relationship with his protagonists. It's a weird mixture of cinematic nostalgia, tough realism, slightly surreal stylization and melancholical romanticism - just wonderful. I'm not into RomComs usually but "Sparrow" (though it is more of a criminal Comedy) really inspired me. We have a lot of his films in review, do visit the index. 

recent film ... 
-- In terms of editing, you may like to watch Eye In The Sky 
-- Election 1 and Election 2 are also good, but I would rather he condensed them into 1 three hr film to deliver more punch ... 

older films 
-- mainstream audience like ... Exiled, The Mission, Running Out of Time, The Longest Nite, All About Ah-Long
