The Mission(1999) is the most entertaining Johnie To movie i ever seen.For years i tried to watch many of his movie to know what the fuss about him and why he gain so much love in Western but every movie leave me with an unsatisfied feeling.Luckily this movie finally open my eyes about his direction style.Describe as a action crime movie with heroic bloodshed spirit to the core the movie is very relaxing.Sure there are many shootout in this movie but it never feel over the top like John Woo shootout.The bullet sound when it hit very realistic and add so much tension to the scene.There are many moment which make the characters stand out and shine in their own right when facing enemies or overcome each other differences.It a good watch and i highly recommend it
