    4/5 Classic HK Gangster film
      by J. Stewart (Hartford,CT USA)
    To start I was searching for this movie for about 2 years , after seeing the first movie Rich & Famous. Finally I found it here, and it was worth the wait . I was not disappointed . I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes HK gangster movies. Plenty of Bullets and bloodshed with a good touch of drama makes Tragic Hero a great watch.

    2/5 Exciting finale, little else.
      by Brendan Klein (philadelphia)
    I saw this film in the theatre on a Chow yun fat film festival. I found the film very amateureshly written. I know action films suspend belief, but this was ridiculous (a woman gets shot in the head, but dosen't die for about 7 minutes, chow recieves over 30 bullet hits in the filnale, but survives.) The story itself was intriguing, but the gun battles were ver outlandish, and out of place (shing fui on's demise is particularly laughable). I can take many stupid violent films of the eighties (AMerican" Lethal Weapon, HK: Tiger on beat), but this one goes too far. It should have stuck with it's story, and not tried try solely to live up to the better tomorrow body count. Danny Lee has a particularly good cameo.

    Tragic Hero Summary There's some extravagant bloody gunplay, but not much else of interest, in this superior 1987 sequel to Rich & Famous. The new film picks up the story of intramural Chinese Mafia conflict six years later. Fortunately, Chow Yun-fat's character, Chai, comes to the fore in part 2, giving the star a chance to replay his suffering-nobility number from John Woo's A Better Tomorrow. After returning from his self-imposed retirement from gang life, he is stripped of all his worldly goods in agonizingly slow stages, so that he can exact total revenge in a flamboyant Scarface-style siege on the bad guy's fortress headquarters. The underlying theme of "masoch-ismo" that runs through the Chinese gunplay films has rarely been as lavishly indulged. Everybody survives a staggering number of bullet hits in this movie--especially Chow, who must get shot 30 times during the climactic battle sequence alone, yet remains standing. Only Woo's A Better Tomorrow II uses up more blood squibs per foot of celluloid. --David Chute
