Quintin Tarantino isn't a hollywood director, he's a Independent film director, so I took that away.

Yes, this article is small, but I think what is here is very well written content. I really do want to see this movie to find out more about it and perhaps contribute to this page. RSido 05:21, 24 February 2007 (UTC) reply

In the part where Chow Yun-Fat is stealing the reel of tape, there is a short tune played -- this tune is recognizable as part of the main theme of Speed (film) soundtrack. That movie came out 8 years after A Better Tomorrow. Does anyone know who originally composed the tune in question? Ham Pastrami ( talk) 16:31, 30 January 2008 (UTC) reply
