John Woo

There’s so many heroes that I admire, like the one general called Zhao Yun, who is saving a little baby in the middle of all the battles...I used him for Chow Yun-Fat in Hard Boiled.

Playful but inconsequential...the interpretation of Dick's intriguing concept is a street which mostly just dead-ends into noisy silliness.

This is your action movie on drugs—any questions?

In a wonderful evocation of the art of war, Woo not only recreates elegant troop movements but also stages a memorable scene in which...[two men of war], still wary of each other, bond over music as they play what becomes a conversational duet.
