Considering how much I loved The Killer as a teenager, I can’t believe it took me this long to see Hard Boiled (1992), which was the action classic every one said it was, maybe the height of director John Woo’s craft. Well, I still can’t get over Woo thinking “How can I raise the stakes and make people think Chow-Yun Fat is even more of a hero? Oh, that’s right – I’ll have him engage in a gunfight while saving a baby from a burning hospital!” Over the top, absurd, poetic, recommended.
