A Better tomorrow

I had nothing to do in the summer vacation, and reminisced about "The True Color of Heroes 2" at home. It should be said that this film is the best Hong Kong shootout film in my memory. Every time I watch it, I always feel different, but always It's the same passion.
There is no doubt that the style of <> is much more mature and atmospheric than the first one.

In the cruel reality, the two brothers Ah Hao and Ajie released their suspicions, and Mark's twin brother Ken resolutely gave up his restaurant for his friends. . . The turbulent rivers and lakes are also mixed with flesh-and-blood kinship and friendship, which is a little deep, but also free and easy. Just like a pot of old wine, spicy, people who have tasted it can always taste the mellow taste.
As the artist said, now everyone is for the benefit, and there are very few people like you who value love and righteousness. When the theme song played the theme song << mark, s theme>>, Uncle Jian, Ahao, Ajian turned into the high wall of Gao Tianpei's villa, this song also became an unforgettable memory for a generation (I like this song very much , I feel excited every time I listen to it). The whole play has already surpassed the works of the same era in terms of plot conception, character performance, and sublimation of the theme, and it can be called a classic in the classics.
As a shootout film, action scenes are definitely the highlight. The first shootout obviously lacked some heat and was too rough. In the second part, John Woo brought his violent aesthetics to the fullest, whether it is the number of gunfights and ammunition equipment, or the performance of explosive hand-to-hand combat scenes, which is different from the first part.
In addition, in addition to the sublimation of the movie's theme, the vivid interpretation of the actors, and the popularity of the action scenes, the reason why this movie makes me miss, there are the following classic lines.
"In the past, it was easy to kill someone; now, it is very difficult to save someone. However, if you do what you want, there will be results." I like this sentence.
Uncle Jian pressed the sentence "Do you think bad guys have a good end?" when he pointed at Gao Yingpei's forehead. It seems normal, but it is actually attentive. Justice is invincible. At the end of their revenge, the three of them sat in a messy living room, waiting for the police, who had already put their lives to death.
There are many more, but they are sparse and shallow, and they can only learn here! Welcome your advice.

    Except for the section of Long Ge New York in the middle, which is a little broken, the others are still beautiful. Fa Ge gave another impression of Mark Guo’s brother’s performance. My elder brother has grown better than the upper part. Maybe it’s the improvement of the script. Dillon Shi Tian and Zengjiang play are really good. Baige Wu’s slow motion cut out, Xu old monster’s fast editing. . The gun battle that broke the apartment in New York was learned from Pekinpa’s getaway. The last three of them fought a sudden abrupt event, which is the pinnacle of Wu’s violent aesthetics.

    "The True Colors of Heroes 2" is even better than the first one in terms of visual effects. Leslie Cheung and Chow Yun-fat both shined in the performance, and both of them performed wonderfully.
