Absolutely classic, the two protagonists are like the front and back of a coin. Although they have different positions, they sympathize with each other, and join hands to oppose each other. They eventually become friends of life and death, but in the end, the yin and yang are separated. It is so heartbreaking to watch. One of the favorite Hong Kong movies, Wu Yusen is a well-deserved classic. The splendid plot, hot shootout, and touching brotherhood all make the film stand out from the Hong Kong film market where the best films in the late 1980s emerged and become an eternal classic. Lu Guanting's soundtrack and Ye Qianwen's poignancy are equally impressive. In reality, men are burdened with innumerable burdens, brotherhood and hatred, and children's love often hardens men's hearts and can no longer cry. However, the movie provides a tearful coffee shop for men. In this coffee shop, the hero and movie fans taste the ups and downs of the unique coffee and share tears that may never be experienced in life. Brotherhood, worship and rebellion, is the eternal material of the film, the memory that will not fade. In this kind of movie, we felt a different kind of emotional bombardment, and saw a man who was piercing his brother, and even weeping.

Good guy? Maybe it was just used to deceive people. A few years later, this movie became "Changing Face"

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.
