A Better Tomorrow 2 (1987) (Chinese)

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094357/

“I won’t give you nothing, man; I give you shit,” sneers charismatic superstar Chow Yun Fat, speaking English (with a De Niro accent) in his role as a New York restaurateur who won’t knuckle under to the (Italian) mob. Chow plays the twin brother of the character he played in the original Tomorrow, the ultraviolent, ultraromantic ultrapopular Hong Kong gangster melodrama. And the blatancy of that device is a fair indication of the sequel’s shortcomings–and of its screwy charm: this is a film that knows no shame. The bond between the natural siblings played by Ti Lung (as a reformed mobster) and Leslie Cheung (as a hot shot cop) still resonate tellingly. As a good-guy ex-thug driven batty by the slaying of his only daughter, real-life Cinema City studio chief Dean Shek gets to play a garishly extended “mad scene,” foaming at the mouth, chewing on soup bones. A later episode in which a dying man crawls to a phone booth to call his wife (and newborn daughter) in the hospital must also be some kind of lurid first in the soap sweepstakes. The final 15 minutes could be the bloodiest single shoot-out sequence ever committed to celluloid. The story line hasn’t been shaped to any particular purpose here, but the images have a golden Godfather-like glow, and this faintly anachronistic, all-stops-out wish-fulfillment approach to moviemaking still has a lot of power. –David Chute

A Better Tomorrow 1 (1986) (Chinese)

A Better Tomorrow (1986) was the gangster film that made John Woo one of the top directors in the Hong Kong film industry during the mid to late 80’s. This one also made Yun-Fat Chow into a superstar and it revived the career of former Shaw Brothers star Lung Ti and boosted the career of pop singer/actor Leslie Cheung. A tragic tale about true friendship and loyalty. Yun-Fat and Lung co-star as two gangsters who are also the best of friends. They have been through a lot together. But a simple twist of fate changes their lives for ever. Leslie Cheung stars as the younger brother of Lung Ti, a straight edge cop who learns about his brother’s secret life. Waise Lee and John Woo also appear in this one as well.

A ground breaking film. Not only did it make Producer Tsui Hark and Cinema City Ltd. a lot of money, it also spawned two official sequels and countless of knock-offs. A number of triad inspired movies were produced after the success of this film. It also started a fashion trend in Hong Kong. Great stuff.

begin dating again.His friend Yasuhisa decides to set up a fake casting audition in hopes that his friend can find new
wife.Aoyama then goes through countless portfolio’s looking for women to audition,but as soon as he sees the beautiful
Asami’s picture he knows that she is the one.Soon they begin dating.Everything seems perfect at first,but is Asami all
more that she seems?”Audition” isn’t as violent and outrageous as “Fudoh” or “Ichi the Killer”,but it certainly delivers some
of the most harrowing scenes of violence ever captured on screen.The film is atmospheric and artistic,so if you’re
looking only for gore and violence avoid this one like the plague.However if you’re a fan of Miike’s works this
masterpiece is not to be missed.10 out of 10.
