Early on in Bookworm, a doctor struggles to have a conversation with a child about her injured mother. The medical professional tries to ease the child’s anxiety and kind of makes a fool of himself, because the young girl just wants a straight answer, “I just want to be told the truth.” Right out of the gate, it is clear that Ant Timpson’s ‘anti-bubble-wrap’ wilderness adventure is going to be about words, and how they matter, as much (perhaps more) than the outdoor adventure put up on screen. The child at the centre of the film is Mildred (Nell Fisher), a precocious 11 year old. She is the kind kid who reads Charles Dickens, and is comfortable using big words and crisp, cutting diction...

From the first hand-to-hand duel on a sinking inflatable boat to the final orgy of explosions and harbour destruction, Nicholas Tse choreographed this film like his life depended on it. He throws himself into the fray with wild abandon, taking as many punches as he doles out. His and Yau’s formal approach to HK action is traditional in the best sense of the word – energetic, propelling, and legible, all the while offering nostalgic vistas of Hong Kong by night. The kinetics smartly rely on a strong sense of geography that exploits spatial possibilities (see the intense mid-film car chase) and solid editing that utilises inserts or close-ups only to enhance the impact of strikes or falls.
The final 15-min set piece is a golden age HK action fan’s wet dream that combines shootouts, cat-and-mouse games on and among containers, massive budget naval destruction, and an exhilarating one-vs-many fight where Tse takes on multiple attackers at once while Yau masterfully stitches shots together to give a feeling of continuous adrenaline without falling into outrageous oner theatricality.
Despite (or perhaps because of) many shortcomings in terms of writing and character development, Customs Frontline plays like a revival of 90s Hong Kong actioners for better and for worse, never circumventing its models’ weaknesses in terms of writing, but making sure it goes higher, harder, louder in the action department. It does not quite reach the high of last year’s The White Storm 3 but comes pretty damn close. Yau proves once again to be one of the most reliable filmmakers currently working in Hong Kong, while Tse comes out as a new, promising voice in action design.

Proton has unveiled Proton Scribe, a privacy-first writing assistant integrated into Proton Mail. This new feature aims to streamline email composition while safeguarding sensitive data. Users can utilize the Shorten or Proofread options to eliminate typos and grammatical errors, and the Formalize option to enhance email tone for formal communications. Designed with privacy in mind, Proton Scribe operates locally, ensuring data never leaves the device.
Available to Mail Essentials, Mail Professional, and Proton Business Suite plan users for $2.99 per user monthly, Scribe can be accessed by clicking the pencil icon in the email composer. Visionary and Lifetime subscribers also receive Scribe at no additional cost. Notably, Scribe does not train on inbox data due to Proton Mail’s zero-access encryption and relies on open-source code and models, allowing for independent security and privacy audits.
