Review of A Better Tomorrow (2010) by Fong K — 24 Apr 2016
A Better Tomorrow (1986) ???
Tense, bloody, high-octane action thriller about an ex-gangster who tries to go straight from crime and also fix things up between his policeman brother. Unfortunately, the ties to his former gang are difficult to break. Inspired characterizations and extremely dynamic action sequences make this a fun romp, however this is not up to par with director John Woo's best Hong-Kong efforts (THE KILLER, HARD BOILED, etc). Yun-Fat Chow, who stars in many of the director's films, is excellent here.
