“I had the chance in 2021 to sit down and watch the 1994 Hong Kong movie titled u0026quot;Heaven and Earthu0026quot; (aka u0026quot;Tin yue deiu0026quot;). And I must admit that I was looking forward to doing so, as the movie had Andy Lau as the lead actor, and he usually makes rather good movies. Now, I hadnu0026#39;t heard about this movie before now in 2021 as I sat down to watch it.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd while u0026quot;Heaven and Earthu0026quot; is watchable, it is hardly a great movie, nor was it an outstanding addition to the gangster and drug-related movies. u0026quot;Heaven and Earthu0026quot; is, however, the type of movie that you will watch once and most likely never again, unless you are a huge fan of Andy Lau.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe storyline in the movie was just too mainstream, and it was something that had been seen before in other movies that managed to fare equally well or better. So on that account then writers Aychi Chan and David Chi-wai Chan didnu0026#39;t really manage to impress me with this 1994 movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTo me it was just a prolonged storyline that had too little momentum to it to really be a storyline that I could immerse myself into and properly enjoy. Too little just transpired throughout the course of the movie. And it didnu0026#39;t help much that the movieu0026#39;s script suffered from being way too predictable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI wasnu0026#39;t impressed with u0026quot;Heaven and Earthu0026quot; and as such, my rating of it lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars.”
