Viewing Notes
Our third movie for movie night is John Woo’s pre-fame stab at heroic bloodshed. Less iconic than his later stuff but still gloriously entertaining! Ignore all but the basics of the plot and just enjoy the ride of over-the-top action and non-sensical happenings and you’ll have a good time.
