About
If you like intense, bittersweet crime romances with strong emotion and stylish Hong Kong energy, this is an easy pick, especially if City on Fire or Once a Thief worked for you; Not for you if overwrought melodrama and violent gang conflict turn you off.
Pros: powerful romance; strong chemistry; iconic soundtrack | Cons: melodramatic tone; some dated clichés; bursts of violence
