Through the processing of upgrading, downgrading, freezing, and scenes, the film can realize the amplification, compression and solidification of real time and space in a shot, and the montage language formed by the combination of the shot and the shot is the narrative of the time and space of the film. The basic way. The fighting scene in the film edits a large number of upgraded shots and the shots recorded at normal speed together. The upgraded shots delay the process of action and give a "dance beauty", while the following normal shots are enhanced. In addition to the tension of the fight, people feel the visual pleasure of being "slumped to the ground".

The classic work directed by John Woo, violent aesthetics, gangster and gangster film. Dillon was in good spirits at that time, and the pony brother played by Fa Ge is the memory of a generation.

Wu Yusen gave Ti Lung, dexterity to Leslie Cheung, and gave Chow Yun-fat the unforgettable charm of Hong Kong's night scene. Regardless of the officials and bandits, the heroes of the triangle have a principled bone and a bloody tenderness. The neat and comfortable scene scheduling and photography movement like a textbook are the ingenuity of the filmmakers, and the close-up of each actor can see the soul of the hero. "You win or lose in gambling," he said with a relaxed smile.

Ho Tse Sung: Do you believe there's a God?
Mark Gor: Yes. I am God. You're one. A god can be human. A god is someone who controls his destiny. Sometimes, there's things you can't control. You win some, you lose some.

Mark Gor: You think learning will help you? Don't think reading gangster books will make you the boss. Have you ever had a gun pointed at your head? No. Twelve years ago... twelve years already. For the first time, I went with Ho to bring goods to Indonesia. The boss there treated us to dinner in the night club. I said something wrong to displease the boss. Then there were two guns pointed at my head. I was forced to dring a bottle of whisky. I was so scared, I pissed my pants! Fortunately, Ho drank the whole bottle of whisky for me. But it got even worse after that. Four guns were pointed at my head! You know they made me drink? Piss! Drink piss in a night club! You want to learn? That's learning! That's how we got through out first job.
Ho Tse Sung: That's all in the past. Forget about it.
Mark Gor: No! I have never cried before; that was the first time I cried. I swore I'd never let anyone point a gun at my head again!
