Where does the "A Better Tomorrow" Trilogy rank amongst Hong Kong, action cinema?

[Tom]

Currently watching this shyt now and the entire trilogy is filled with guns clapping and bodies dropping. The body count gotta be in the millions. No one does these types of films better than Asians b.

Chow Yun-fat


John Woo

it doesnt the original tomorrow was known IMO for its stylish camera work mixed with music, shaekesparean tragedy storyline and chow yun fats performance morseo than the gunfights

the remake doesnt really have the soul as much as the original but it does deliver in action.

the trilogy kind of got corny imo when it got to part 2 but the action was more spectacular so it did its thing, part 3 kind of brought it back to its roots and the ending was sad but it wasnt directed by jon woo.

I never even bothered to check out "Return to a better tomorrow"

I've only seen the first, but it wasn't on Hard Boiled/The Killer level to me at all.

The Killer/Hard Boiled are also.

Personally I think the entire trilogy is 10/10 but A Better Tomorrow II was probably the best one, the bodies just kept dropping in that bytch, bang bang

The ending alone shyts on any american action film i've ever seen




Nobody does action better than those slanted eye muthafukkas b
