Oh that was your answer to what John Wick

Yawn no thanks
I've only seen a bit of Bullet in the Head so I don't know how it is but it seems to be the only movie Woo released during his classic period that people don't talk about much. There's no way anyone with taste wouldn't love Hard Boiled, The Killer, or A Better Tomorrow (basically anything starring Chow Yun-Fat cause he's the coolest Chinaman ever born). They probably helped to kill the American 80s action movie cause they looked limp by comparison. I mean that 45 minute extended action scene at the end of Hard Boiled is possibly the best action scene ever made. Definitely the best up to that point (1992).

Gonna watch A Better Tomorrow I and II and pretend I'm at the movies.
If I didn't have to be at work at 7am I'd definitely throw on The Killer.
