say anything

Brotherhood is sometimes worthless, but sometimes it is life-threatening. My mind is full of fragments. Xiaozhuang said that the world has changed, and it is no longer about morality. I saw Aken holding a submachine gun, dragging Long Si and saying, my ten years of hard work have been ruined like this, I don't need anyone's sympathy, I don't need anyone's pity, I can go out on my own. The world will not force you. There is a dead end ahead, if we rush out, the dead end will also become a life road.
My brother said that this time it was a real draw.
My brother said, I am not afraid, I am very afraid, I am afraid that I will die, and I haven't done it yet.
So I made it, and I died.



I don't want to complain at all how unreasonable the plot of this movie is, how it is a gunfight for the sake of a gunfight, and what kind of a bloody reason came to bring the little brother back to life, I just saw it, the hearty life of nine deaths, put it aside I just want to be willing to die, the fourth uncle said, I'm fine, I don't need you to save me.
Uncle Jian said, would you like to prepare a boat for you? Your expressions seem to be saying, you are old and confused.
Climbing over this wall, throwing away backpacks and ammunition, there is no intention of going out alive. When the three of them sat on the sofa together, looked at the corpses piled up in front of them, and waited quietly for the police to arrive, you would believe it.


The story is that simple.
Brother Hao went down this road of no return for
his younger brother's mission.
Long Si wanted to be a good person, but he was desperately dragged into the water.
Aken endured humiliation in the United States for more than ten years, and the restaurant was once destroyed.


Long Si's Daughter is dead,
Ajie

is dead, the hero is dead, and he will never sigh. Woo Yusen-style rivers and lakes, how to account for gains and losses, how to sympathize with human life, one person with a gun, there is a reason to die for you. For justice, for morality, for law, none of them, really for the sake of brothers.
In the bloody rivers and lakes, the guns are bloody, the swords are deadly, a cigarette is lit, the corners of the mouth show an arc, and the camera flashes the irrelevant supporting roles. Jianghu does not talk about logic, it only talks about pleasure, and Wu Yusen's Jianghu is even more so.

Don't care about the plot, don't complain about the plot. If you are in a bad mood, warm a glass of wine, look at Brother Fa, if you have the pride of risking your life, you may still believe in the faith between brothers.

After all, the movie is a memory, a description, even if there may be something that doesn't look like the painting, just Xiao Xiao smiled. What does it matter, I don't know about Hong Kong in that era, the gangsters in that era. However, I still believe that there is indeed such a thing as brotherhood among the rivers and lakes.

    7.3/10. ①Song Zijie, Song Zihao, Song Zihao's mentor Long Si, Xiao Ma's younger brother A Jian, and Long Si's former subordinate Gao Yingpei (Gao Yingpei betrayed Long Si, usurped his throne and killed his daughter). Among them, Song Zijie is more on behalf of the police to investigate the issue of shipping counterfeit banknotes from the shipyard, while Song Zihao/Long Si/A Jian are trying to avenge Long Si. ②There is no doubt that the most exciting audio-visual passage in this film is the end of the three people in Gao Yingpei's house of various massacres (and the scene of the three people sitting on the sofa). In addition, Song Zijie helped Gao Yingpei Group fight the enemy who came to grab the goods, A Jian and Long Si escaped from the apartment in the United States. The two fights are also good. ③Song Zijie was beaten to death by Gao Yingpei's men in the middle, and did not catch up with the final battle. ④As a traditional melodrama, many plots of the movie are not fully developed (for example, some plots in New York are a bit abrupt), which is a pity.

    In childhood memories, the fourth uncle was stimulated by the death of his daughter and became stupid. He didn't even dare to fire a gun, and he couldn't fight back when he was chased and killed. In the end, he woke up and took Ah Jian back to take revenge. This unfortunate thing is how did Applejack die? He died when his wife had just given birth to the child, and he didn't even see the last side of the child. The scene where the three men are sitting on chairs at the end is very tragic!
