A Better Tomorrow

 

"One of the finest gangster movies ever made." - The Essential Guide To Hong Kong Movies

Supercool mobster Mark (Chow Yun Fat) is a man of honour in a world of crime. His partner Ho (Ti Lung) is having second thoughts because kid brother Kit (Leslie Cheung) is an ambitious cop. Kit remains blissfully ignorant until Ho is double-crossed, their father is murdered and Ho is imprisoned. Mark swears to avenge his friend, but his right leg is shattered in the ensuing shoot-out, a legendary scene of sensationally choreagraped gunplay. When Ho leaves the slammer he finds the crippled Mark reduced to scrubbing dirt off the gang boss's stretch limo. Both are determined to go straight, but neither Kit nor the Crimelords are done with them yet. Finally, Mark, Ho and Kit must face their destiny in a blazing crossfire of conflicting loyalties and hot lead. Who will survive...
John Woo's breakthrough gangster movie with Chow Yun Fat in the role of the supercool mobster which launched him into superstardom - absolutely unmissable...
