Hard Boiled (1992)
7/10
John Woo
28 December 2013
Hard Boiled is the earliest John Woo film that I have seen,, so now I can see where he got some of his ideas from,, this is a great action picture, lot's of gunplay,, great camera choreography,, the stunts are mindblowing,, hand to hand combat you name it this film has it all. Chow Yun Fat, plays our lead character,, a policeman in Hong Kong,, his partner get's killed and he is out for vengeance. Thru diligent policework he find out that the bad guys that killed his partner are working for the Triads. little does he know tho that one of the Triads is really an underdcover cop , and folks that's when things really start to get good, I like watching films made in other countries,, especially , Chineese , or Japanese, I get tired of some of the same ole American schlock sometimes,, and John Woo delivers once again .
