classic work

What is a classic? The climax of the whole film is constant, and many action scenes can be called textbooks, and the little humor interspersed from time to time also makes people smile. The few literary dramas make the rhythm of the whole film relaxed, the feelings are sincere, and the characters become fuller. Great effort has been put into the shaping of the villain Han Mo, and many reversals are also based on normal logic. All of which makes the action film still alive today, 23 years later.

You can guess without looking at the credits that Michael Bay will be involved in this film, but I've watched it many times before and didn't notice Michael Beane, the future warrior of the Terminator, in the cast.
