Woo Yusen's violent aesthetics are really cool, and the classic shots are really cool. If you say it's a sequel, you just watched the first one and made the second one. Ah mark turned into twins, ah ken, in order to ignite the previous memory, he also deliberately Wear Ah Mark's clothes during the decisive battle.

But I don't think this one has the same feeling as the previous one. The characterization and the camera are very enjoyable to watch. The scenes of Jackie giving birth and Ah Jie's close call are alternately performed to create a tense close-up situation. There is also a small character who is obsessed with the killer's portrayal is also in place, without saying a word, by fighting with Ajie, without money, and with Ken, the whole image of his perverted killer is revealed.

Ken's fire-breathing lens is also very classic

Although this is a violent action movie, many of the lines and phrases in it also express some feelings about life. After a lot of things, I feel that I don't understand whether it is a film or an article about some of these things. Dare to say that a deeper insight is just a deeper concern.

From the oppression of the little people at the bottom to the Jedi counterattack, it is not the theme of the world.

The psychological portrayal of Long Si from being admired by all to no one, to the pain of losing his daughter, to the madness of frustration and heartbreak, to standing up again is really vivid.

This gang of tough guys with iron blood, from their experience to the actual battle, reflects that even if they are beaten with bullet holes, they are still fierce and dignified, and they have to kill everything when they climb.

As the first part said, "I endured for three years, not to prove how powerful I have to be, but to get back what I lost with my own hands."

    As a sequel, it continues the lineup of Chow Yun-fat + Dillon + Leslie Cheung. However, the plot is far-fetched and blunt. Even if it is set as a prequel, it is much better than having a twin brother. The part in America is full of sexual obscenity. The shootout at the end is even more ridiculous. Three people shot dozens of people without damage, which is really absurd. If it weren't for the performances of a few actors, I really couldn't watch it.

    I saw it on the bus home when I was in elementary school, and I have never forgotten it. Leslie Cheung wore a beige suit and exposed white shirt, appearing like a god.
