Let’s Live for TodayWritten by Peter Warne (as Michael Julien), Mogol (as Giulio Rapetti Mogol), Norman David Shapiro (as Norman Shapiro)Produced by Wendy Wang. I had to stop after 50min where I couldn't take it anymore, I mean it might be for someone but not for me.John Woo has a style and I respect that!
I know it's stupid
However I'm not sure if I would still have stomach for that in 2024, nearly 30 years after Faceoff.You might ask how about the story then? Enough to know that a Killer with misplaced conscious caused a lot of civilians to die to avoid one particular civilian to die because she was against killing civilians.
But that's the main theme, at least up until I said enough is enough
The plot has so many wholes and it looks so fake that even popular faces couldn't save it for me.Do not waste your precious life with this movie, Mr Woo, please grow up.
