Who would have thought that this movie would open the door for one of the most legendary movie directors in Hong Kong film history. Although this movie came out almost 25 years ago, but it is like an old wine vintage that only gets better in time, the movie does not feel dated at all.
I checked out this movie to get a feel of what Tsui Hark was like in the beginning, I was not disappointed at all.
