5/10
The title "The Great Buddha" doesn't manifest the storyline in any sense.

Warning: Spoilers
A night security guard (Pickle) in a Buddha Statue Factory (Globe) cum residence is a friend with a scrap picking guy (Belly Button). Their favourite time pass at night is to watch dashboard camera videos of Pickle's Boss's Mercedes Benz. Pickle's Boss (Kevin Huang) is a very rich and powerful middle aged man who is a Casanova. One night Pickle and Belly Button were watching the videos when they saw a video where Kevin was killing his ex and sealed her inside a big Bronze Statue of Buddha in their factory. They decided not to inform police because law is biased towards the rich and moreover Pickle's old mother is sick and he needs this job to take care of her. A night Kevin suddenly came into the security cabin when Pickle was alone and told him he knows everything what he and his trash picking friend do whole night here. He also asked Pickle if he needs any help to approach him. Following morning, Belly Button was found dead in a drainage ditch with high blood alcohol in his body looking like an accident whereas Pickle knows Belly Button doesn't drink. Next Kevin arranged Pickle's mother for hospital stay and the bills were taken care. Pickle couldn't understand Kevin's intentions. In the final scene, the bronze Buddha statue was sold to a Buddhist Temple and where the ceremony was going on, suddenly the monks started hearing a noise inside the Statue.
