A Better Tomorrow was highly decent but without enough carnage. I think I'm falling in love with Chow Yun-Fat though. The Killer is kicking my ass atm. Easily the best of these three movies as an entire movie and that long Mexican stand off where Chow and a detective have tea with a blind woman while trying their best not to let her know they're pointing guns at each other is one of the most gloriously ludicrous things I've ever seen.

And I STILL can not deal with how bombass the hospital shootout from Hard Boiled was.
