Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - I-Feng Mansion, To Kwa Wan

I Feng Mansion has cropped up in quite a few places. In this film, it is supposed to be the rooftop above where Dr Bergman (Hugo Weaving) lives. Apparently, to make something a bit more futuristic, all you have to do is add some lights.

Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - Mido Cafe, Yaumatei

Jack goes for coffee with April at the Mido Cafe. Note that this was before the neon sign was removed by the Government. These places have so much more character with their neon signs, but apparently Hong Kong feels it is better to remove them all.

Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - Alleyway off Soy Street, Mongkok

As Jack is being followed by the mysterious bald guy, he heads down an alleyway between Soy Street and Changsha Street to lose him, but when he turns around to confront him in the alleyway, he has disappeared. The Sun Ming Building can be seen on Soy Street in the background. If this place rings a bell it might be because it is the building that replaced the famous Wan Loi Tea House that was used in Hard Boiled.

After following April around, Jack is also tailed by a mystery man with a bald head (Andrew Ng), who follows him from the alleyway onto Cameron Road.

Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - Portland Street, Mongkok

Portland Street is one of the recurring locations in this film. In one scene, Jack is once again following April. In the first images, he is walking past the Tung Nam Lou Hotel on the corner with Pitt Street. The same rough area can be seen in the end scene as Jack is again walking along Portland Street, but this time next to the junction with Hamilton Street. The building on the corner in the last image is the C.P.M.S Yaumatei Church.

Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - View above Sé Parish, Macau

The general area above the location of the rear of the club can be seen in this image below. These are basically the cluster of highrise apartments east of Rua de Cantão. In the first image the front of the Starworld Casino can be see at the top right. The following images show the area between the Emperor Hotel Macau and the New Orient Landmark.

Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - Pek Tou Fa Un, Avenida da Amizade

More Hong Kong/Macau hybrid geography. So Jack sees April leave the club (a Macau location), he then follows her through the streets of Hong Kong (such as Kansu Street) and then watches her go into her apartment building, which is back in Macau. This building with the curved windows is called "Pek Tou Fa Un" (a.k.a Marina Gardens) and is located on Avenida da Amizade.

Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - Kansu Street, Yaumatei

Creepy Jack stalks April and follows her back to her apartment block. This is Kansu Street right next to the Alhambra building. If you have been following this blog for a while you may remember that Ghost in the Machine also filmed here, taking advatnage of the neon light of the Mahjong club seen in the top image. Here's a reminder.

Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - Alley near Alameda Dr. Carlos d'Assumpção, Macau

In the world of movie magic where a location can be made up of multiple places, the club where April works is located in Macau, but not really. It's supposed to be in Hong Kong, but the film makers used an alleyway in Macau to stand in for the rear exit of the club. However, some shots also incorporated what looks to be an alley in neither Hong Kong or Macau, so I am guessing it was filmed back in Australia, which was then merged with the Macau location.

This nameless alley connects Praça De D. Afonso Henriques in the west with Alameda Dr. Carlos d'Assumpção in the east. The depth of field in the screenshot makes it difficult to see how far down the alley we are, but it looks like the camera was positioned further to the east, some where between Alameda Dr. Carlos d'Assumpção and Rua de Xangai.

Other shots of the same area appear to show a composite of another location, with this same alleyway and its neon signage, superimposed on the background.

Expired - Ryan Kwanten (2021) - Canal Road Flyover

There are quite a few scenic shots of Hong Kong from this film, some of which have been digitally altered to appear more futuristic (i.e. had some coloured lights added), but others appear to be fairly true to reality, including this one of the Canal Road Flyover. This is the view looking north, with Times Square on the extreme right. The low rise building top centre is the Wanchai Firestation.
