SUMMARY
After getting betrayed, an ex-gangster tries leave the criminal world and reconcile with his policeman brother.
RATING
B After getting betrayed, a reforming ex-gangster tries leave the criminal world behind and reconcile with his policeman brother, and try to convince his best friend to leave as well. The movie that birthed the modern Hollywood action film, with the beginnings of "gun-fu". The story is surprisingly sincere given that it's supposed to be a "dumb" action movie. Leslie Cheung does an amazing job in this role, portraying both innocence as the kid brother and a jaded cop after his brother is betrayed.
