Too much of Gun Play for my taste, too overblown
with endless shoot-outs, less is better sometimes, but surely the Great

paved the way for a wave of Hollywood
imitations with Gun Play / Gun Ballet in the action films. Bullet Ballet felt
cool back then, but maybe not that much now
widescreen letterbox with maybe cropped up picture
