Synopsis Brothers By Blood. Enemies By Chance. Killers By Nature. A Better Tomorrow is the film that started it all, full of John Woo's now-classic trademarks of jaw-dropping style, heart-stopping action and gunfire mayhem that must be seen to be believed. Chow Yun Fat stars in this epic story of suave gangsters and renegade cops who discover that in a world bound by honor, revenge comes at the speed of a bullet. Written, and directed by John Woo, this is the breakthrough film that made international superstars of both Woo and Chow Yun Fat, and single-handedly changed the look of action movies forever!

Its virtuoso action sequences and angst ridden characterisation set a whole genre. Given Anchor Bay's past efforts I was really looking forward to a definitive edition of this film and with the press release sporting an Anamorphic transfer and 5.1 original language audio this definitely looked the business.

I was looking forward to take a look at this new region 1, his masterpiece movie. You know, how this movie influences HK's movie and also the stepping stone of John Woo.
