It is too exaggerated to show that A Rong (played by Li Zixiong) is mercenary, and even after the danger disappears, he can shoot the brother who just saved his life. Being able to be friends of life and death with such a person can only mean that A B (played by Tony Leung) and A Hui (played by Jacky Cheung) are too blind. Many scenes could not stand up to scrutiny. Ah Hui, who jumped into the river to save Ah Rong, disappeared for no reason. . . . A Rong, who was always emotional and couldn't control himself, had no big picture and became the leader of the club as soon as he returned to Hong Kong. . . . If Xueyou brother's film was before "Carmen Mong Kok", it would be a sublimation of his acting skills, but unfortunately it did not break away from the shadow of Ayou in "Carmen Mong Kok", and it seemed to be as noisy as a voice acting. . . . However, it also inherits the exciting and exciting gunfight style in "The True Color of Heroes", incorporates elements of the civil war in North and South Vietnam, and reveals the cruelty and ruthlessness brought by the war to the world from a very objective perspective. And the scene of injecting drug control to singers, the painful moment when Ah Hui had to take drugs to relieve because of a headache, the scene of the common prosperity of the army and bandit family. . . . . Combined with John Woo's statement that this film is an adaptation of his own real experience, there are still many personal ideas incorporated. A bit of an anticlimactic ending, but overall it's okay.

    Looking at Yuan Jieying, Wu Yusen couldn't hold back the battle, he was neither Mai Jiaban nor Lin Lingdong. The screenwriter is too rough, it feels like asthma, and the action scenes are stupid

    Under the realism trend of Hong Kong film society in the early 1990s, John Woo also shot a work with such a sense of the times. The comparison of many front and back scenes in the film conveys the disillusionment of history, and many places are reminiscent of Apocalypse Now It echoes with the shadow of the deer hunter and Xu Anhua's desertion to the Angry Sea. The narrative is also very smooth, with both literary and commercial characteristics, and it is highly ornamental, but personally I still prefer bloodshed.

Bullet in the Head quotes

  • Ben: Fai, I said we would go back to Hong Kong together. If you can't go back, then neither of us is going back.

  • Ben: You always called me Big Brother, I said being friends was enough. Among friends, rank is irrelevant.
