Once you enter the rivers and lakes, you can't help yourself

In 2017, I watched the heroic character again. The feeling is completely different from when I was a child.
When I was a child, I liked Heroes 2 more. The shootouts were endless, and it was enjoyable to watch. In my impression, this is also a shootout film, and the cool and handsome pony is ruthless.
Looking at it again today, I found that this film is quite connotative, the contradiction between family affection and responsibility, and the difficulty of abandoning evil and turning to good. Feeling that people can't help themselves in the arena. This film is quite a bit like the Hong Kong and Taiwan version of the godfather.
When I watched this movie before, I liked the dashing and handsome little pony brother, the evil charm when he smiled, and the agility in the Longtan alone. This is the hero's dream in the hearts of teenagers.
Now after watching this movie, I prefer Di Lung's Hao Ge. This man joined the underworld in order to support his family when he was young. His younger brother became a policeman and wanted to wash his hands in order not to delay his younger brother. Even if he was betrayed in Taiwan, he was still tight-lipped. It is so difficult to be a good person after being released from prison for a person who is so good to his friends and family that he has nothing to say. The younger brother he loves the most is unwilling to accept him. The younger brother he once protected made things difficult for him. The owner of the taxi shop who took him in was right. Once he entered the arena, he couldn't help himself. How could it be so easy to get out.

    The true character of the hero embodies the value of Hong Kong gangster films to the extreme from the level of personality and ideology

    A rare author's film in police and criminal films. "You don’t owe anything. I never force my friends to do things they don’t want to do. I have my own principles. I don’t want to be trampled underfoot for the rest of my life. You think I’m a beggar. I waited for three years. I have to wait for an opportunity, I want to fight, not to prove that I am great; I want to tell people that I must take back what I have lost!" "I warn you, don't point a gun to my head!"
