A Better Tomorrow 2 (英雄本色 2;
pinyin: yīngxióng běnsè èr) is a
1987 Hong Kong film, which is a follow-up to its popular predecessor,
A Better Tomorrow. A Better Tomorrow 2 is notoriously known for its over-the-top violence, exaggerated blood and gore and body counts nearing the hundreds. A Better Tomorrow 2 is directed by
John Woo and stars
Chow Yun-Fat,
Leslie Cheung, Dean Shek and
Ti Lung. Although the movie was initially panned for its rather campy feel and a much more soap opera like plot than its prequel, with
Chow Yun-Fat going on an over-the-top tirade in one point of the movie over a bowl of rice, it is now considered a cult classic, with many fans considering it as equalling the first
A Better Tomorrow movie.
