Number one Eastern superstar Chow Yun Fat recreates his legendary role of Mark Gor, alongside Tony Leung. He falls for sexy underworld femme fatale Anita Mui and, against a background of war-torn Vietnam, changes from an easy-going young hoodlum to the overcoated, tooth-pick-choming, two-gun-toting gangster supreme already familiar from Woo's earlier classic. A stylish rites-of-passage tale of double-dealing intrigue, obessive gun fetishism punctuated by outbursts of shocking slo-mo violence. (Verleiher-Text)

The notorious melodrama of the first half and the overblown shootout of the second half are at each other's throats in a battle for a living minimum of mutual symbiosis. In the end, sadly, they both lose. Hark Tsui may not be a complete routinist, but the soap opera flows like sugary syrup and the rattling guns are just a boring jumble of slow-motion shots desperately begging for a touch of creativity. Also, the whole thing takes two hours. God.
