The biggest credit for this movie is the director Liu Weiqiang. Liu Weiqiang made the film's narrative completely serve the plot, without any ramifications, completely in one go. In addition, Liu Weiqiang has also abandoned the previous Hong Kong movie gangster movies. He no longer puts loyalty, grievances and hatreds in the first place, but focuses on portraying the psychological changes of the characters; he no longer blindly pursues big scenes, big bangs, but The focus is on describing how things will go. Although this approach was often seen in Johnnie To's movies before, what is different from Johnnie To is that Liu Weiqiang's narrative method is more compact. In the film, Liu Weiqiang used a lot of close-ups to express the inner thoughts of the characters, which strengthened the tension of the film and made people watchful).
