I'm more in the realm of appreciation for this movie. The dynamic between the brothers was strong, the visual flair was nice, and Woo's direction of the action is stellar.

Unfortunately, I didn't really get anything out of this.

Je trouve ça bien d'avoir des protagonistes masculins typiques de film d'action mais qui expriment leurs émotions avec une grande intensité, surtout des sentiments comme l'amour fraternel ou l'amitié, ce qu'on trv pas trop ds le cinéma blockbuster occidental
Tout est super mélodramatique , la musique au synthé sur les lumières de Hong Kong...
Je pense que John Woo adore vrmt ses persos (masculins en tt cas car les femmes n'existent pas je crois) prcq il leur donne moitié moitié d'émotivité et de grandes valeurs et de style pur et dur, ils sont bien sapés en lunettes de soleil ils se tirent dessus piou piou piou ils fument tt le tmp
Point fort pour le garagiste qui accompagne des ex-taulards, un exemple de moralité

“If you live by principles, you have nothing to fear.”

In the neon lights and symmetrical shattering of it all. Loud bangs and suave music accompany everything twisted up into the shredder. All morals and principles tested. A man dragging his life anew for his brother, a man dragging his friend out of depths, a brother facing the daunting task of forgiveness. The meshing and clashing off all relationships intertwining is so pure of life. It’s disgusting and maggot filled and just flat out barb wire to chew on, as life can be. That raw beauty shines so hard as blood flies across neon lights and tears are shed in the brace of a hug. Truly such a magnitude of emotion on display, real men being emotional in all capacity’s with each other. A true roar of emotion in an absolutely thrilling action. Drama centered while having all the Woo flair we all get googly eyed over each and every time.

The soundtrack definitely showed its age a little bit and I’ll also very repetitive but I’m gonna say this to the characterization of Mark, Ah Ho, and kit and then having Mark drive the morality of the film was incredible. I love the relationships between all the characters and the parallelism between the brothers. Also Mark just had a shit ton of swagger and when I watched the interview after like John Woo was like oh like he was really supposed to be a small character, but then he just had so much presence. Oh my God that makes sense cause like bro his action sequences were incredible and he really brought a lot more. I guess motion into the movie and he definitely drove the movie.All the characters were driven by principle, but Mark is the only one to do it for pride.

Also a lot of small character details that were amazing. but yeah and then oh shit I took the wrong turn. This is the review, I’m driving so give me some grace a fuck we’re gonna do this but again OK.

But yes finally, soundtrack was repetitive it was very funny and then all the gun sound effects were actually insane. It sounded crazy but yeah overall great watch.
