A Better Tomorrow II
A Better Tomorrow 2 is a 1987 Hong Kong action film written and directed by John Woo.
A follow- up to its popular predecessor," A Better Tomorrow", the film stars returning cast members Chow Yun- fat, Ti Lung and Leslie Cheung alongside new cast member Dean Shek.
The film was released in Hong Kong on 17 December 1987.
Due to the popularity of Chow's break- out performance in the previous instalment, he was cast in a new character as the twin brother of" Mark", who was killed in the previous film.
" A Better Tomorrow 2" is known for its over the top violence, exaggerated blood and gore, and body counts nearing the hundreds.
Film director John Woo and producer Tsui Hark had disagreements over the focus of this film.
Tsui felt that the film should focus more on Dean Shek's character.
This led to the film being edited by both Tsui and Woo.
Their disagreements would lead to a split after this film, with Hark directing" A Better Tomorrow 3" and Woo moving on to create" The Killer".
A Better Tomorrow
A Better Tomorrow is a 1986 Hong Kong action film directed by John Woo, and starring Ti Lung, Leslie Cheung and Chow Yun- fat.
The film had a profound influence on the Hong Kong film industry, and later on an international scale.
It was a landmark film, credited with setting the template for the heroic bloodshed genre, which was considerably influential in Hong Kong action cinema, and later Hollywood.
Although it was produced with a tight budget, and was relatively unknown until it went on screen( due to virtually no advertising), it broke Hong Kong's box office record and went on to become a blockbuster in Asia.
It is highly regarded, ranking# 2 in the Best 100 Chinese Motion Pictures.
Its success also ensured the sequel" A Better Tomorrow II", also directed by Woo, and" A Better Tomorrow 3: Love& Death in Saigon", a prequel directed by Tsui Hark.
Although Ti Lung was the film's lead actor, co-star Chow Yun-fat's breakout performance outshone him, solidifying the latter's status as one of the top superstars in the Hong Kong film industry.
Chow's character" Mark Gor" was imitated by many fans even decades after the film's release.
