8/10
An epic tale of honour and loyalty
7 March 2005
A Better Tomorrow is a well-known movie by many fans of cinema and it's not difficult to tell why.

ABT indeed is a splendid example about how to make an extremely touching and deep movie with simple plot and great actors.

Chow Yun Fat is (once again) great, his character embody the will to revenge of a man who lost wealth and money to regain honour as his partner Lung Ti.

The character played by Leslie Cheung is a true gem, a policeman who has to choose between the love of a brother and justice. Not a very simple one..

John Woo has the merit to have installed one of the most epic trilogy ever without futile bombastic-poor-drama sequences to set up an unforgettable ballet of bullets and honour.
