    As a representative work of John Woo's film violence aesthetics, "Blood and Blood" presents a hearty and incisive righteousness of the rivers and lakes under the perfect interpretation of Li Xiuxian and Chow Yun-fat, two movie emperors, one policeman and one bandit. The flying white pigeons gave the movie a bloody romance, and a bloody dispute created countless classics.

    The aesthetic pinnacle of John Woo's Hong Kong film era. 1. The MV paragraph is mentioned at the beginning, and the music (with the theme) and the characters are also laid out while generating stimulating events and relaxing the rhythm. 2. In the Hong Kong film dimension, the lines are designed to be quite delicate. Many lines have themes and emotions, and they appear repeatedly, and there are very few water words. 3. The scheduling of the two sniping paragraphs, various car chase paragraphs and other gun battles other than the church shootout are very good and full of beauty. Not to mention the shootout in the church, the doves, the cross, the Virgin Mary, and the candles, these sets enhance the beauty and expand the space for symbolic interpretation. 4. Chow Yun-fat's symbol is the church, and Li Xiuxian's is Guan Gong. From the close-up to the blurred background, Guan Gong's shadow has always existed. 5. The characters other than "Double Heroes" are relatively thin, including Ye Qianwen and Zeng Jiang, Zhu Jiang looks very plump, but the front and back behaviors still feel a bit disconnected. 6. There are still some rough places, but the flaws do not hide the good.
