    Different from the strong masculinity of the first two episodes directed by John Woo, Tsui Hark this time focused on Anita Mui as a heroine in troubled times, while Chow Yun-fat, who was brilliant in the first two episodes, took a back seat. The film is a prequel to the first episode. Tsui Hark used Vietnam in the 1970s to tell his memory of growing up and his immigration history. The addition of the role of Anita Mui added chivalrous tenderness and romance that were not present in the first...

    Hong Kong movies in the 1980s and 1990s have a magic power, like the big stew in the Northeast, no matter what messy ingredients are added, it can be delicious. This is also a love triangle, a Vietnam War, and a...

    In fact, it's better to just call it Song of the Sunset. In the film, except for the name MARK, it has basically nothing to do with the true character of the hero. If you look at it as Ying 3, it may only have two stars, but it is still remarkable to see it...

    This is just a supplementary work for the box office. Although it is still a Hong Kong film at its peak, it can throw off other films by a few streets now. But Tsui Hark is Tsui Hark in the end, he can't be willing to just do a sequel to John Woo, but to the audience who have followed and expected the whole story, what they want is just a sequel. Three exhausted, in the end it is still declining. But unforgettable, and Anita Mui's...

    "The setting sun is infinitely helpless, but it is bright for a breath, and the brilliance that fades away with the clouds is no longer there, and the changes of this life are unbearable, like floating clouds, tangled and tangled in this vicissitudes of life." There is no one more suitable for Zhou Yingjie than Mei Gu, but the scene under He Changqing at the end of the film makes me particularly concerned. The so-called trust, loyalty, and...

    6. The style is very different from Woo Yusen's two films. Tsui Hark used Vietnam as the background to show the despair and apocalypse-like social mood in troubled times. The shell of the hero's true color is completely OK, but unfortunately the emotional foothold is still too small, and the situation under the Vietnam War is not well integrated with the protagonist's story. Overall still quite...

    The fragmentation of the plot is too serious, and the fight for love in the second half is too light. The best shootout is the one that doesn't sell in the first place. The final battle has the feeling of being forcibly stacked. Anita Mui's performance is excellent, and the characters are classics. On the other hand, Leung Ka Fai, the few scenes in which he did not wear a shirt, were too...

    The three-person line is standard, and Sister Mei adds a lot of emotion and temperament to this final chapter. In the end, Fa Ge rode a motorcycle with a box of bombs, which was too...

    heroic character

    Two brushes after five years.

    Compared to the first two films, this one has fewer fighting scenes, but a lot more tenderness.

    The most touching scene is the death of He Changqing, who is the villain, and the deep affection for the woman who blocked the knife for him and made him love and hate, and...

    Looking at the emotional part of Pony Ma, which has never been seen in the two movies, it finally appeared in Song of the Sunset. The love scene with Anita Mui, although Anita Mui is not beautiful, is definitely a woman who can be remembered. Maybe it's the charisma. It's obvious that Brother Ma is...
