Item Description
Over the top doesn't even begin to describe John Woo's Bullet in the Head. His famed 1990 Vietnam war epic possesses the usual John Woo signifiers: male protagonists, trials of friendship, displays of honor, homoerotic male bonding, and two-gun action. It also possesses extreme histrionics, nearly comical emotional extremes, and characters who are so typified that they threaten to become cartoons. And it's depressing as all hell. But despite all that—or perhaps even because of it—Bullet in the Head succeeds. This is a film so emotionally draining and intensely powerful that it can't help but affect.
In 1967, on the way to the wedding of a friend a young man is accosted by a local gang member. Later, the three friends administer justice, in the process of which the gang member is killed, so they leave Hong Kong to avoid the police and the gang. They run black market supplies to Saigon and get embroiled in the war, being arrested as Viet Cong, then later captured by the Viet Cong, and find that their friendship is tested to the limits as they try to escape.
