Back in the end-1980s/early-1990s last century, in the era of pre-1997, everyone in the HK Cinema was scrambling for making biopics. "To Be Number One" was such a hype back then as the pioneer of the genre.

The film was in fact so disjointed & broken in narrative between scenes (not recalling if this was because a lot of edition had been done due to the alluding of the characters in real life) which, anyway, was one of the common features of HK Cinema even in its prime time.

This review of To Be Number One (1991) was written by on 12 Oct 2013.

To Be Number One has generally received mixed reviews.
