John Woo after N times

First of all, giving two stars does not mean that this movie is not good, I am really tired of aesthetics.

John Woo's movie (about brotherly friendship), when you watch it for the first time, you will be very excited, you will be moved by the love of the man, and you will feel that the love of a man can even surpass love.

True Colors 1 is, True Colors 2 is, and Bloody Two Heroes is. I even excerpted the lines that I thought were good in True Colors 1. During that time, I was very obsessed with the true colors of heroes, and I thought the men in there were real men. .

But now after watching the bloody street, I don't have the emotion at that time. This is still a typical John Woo movie, but John Woo's approach seems to be like this, repeated again and again.
1. Contrast between the past and the present, the people who were good yesterday were bad today, and the people who were good today were the younger brother yesterday.
2. Men's movies are all about men who have been beaten with blood, especially Li Zixiong in the bloody street, which is unreal.
3. Those lines are often moved. In this episode, Tony Leung told Jacky Cheung that it doesn't matter whether friends are big or small, which made me immediately think of the phrase in "Blood Two Heroes" that there is no debt between friends and no debt.
4. John Woo's films are suitable for young people to watch, and the age after youth really lacks that passion.

Finally, I would like to say that this movie is more aptly called Bloody Vietnam.
