		of the past, and at A Better Tomorrow we refer clients to detox centers that utilize the latest in modern medicine combined with compassionate care.
		For that reason, A Better Tomorrow's contracted provider will generally suggest the use of Soboxin or Subutex, which combines the therapeutic advantages of Buprenorphine and Moloxin.
		These are considered to be far less invasive and considerably shorter term, yet achieving the desired results of a safe and comfortable detox.

	Better Luck Tomorrow
		Better Luck Tomorrow is one of the better movies that I've seen recently.
		In fact, although I went to high school in the 1960s and my family is Northern European, I related to this film better than I have to any high school film in my memory.
		Any film rated C- or better is recommended for fans of that type of film.

	A Better Tomorrow (1986)
		A Better Tomorrow is the film that started it all, full of John Woo’s now-classic trademarks of jaw-dropping style, heart-stopping action and gunfire mayhem that must be seen to be believed.
		ABT definitely establishes the Woo trademarks of stylish, graphic violence but it never sacrifices character for theatrics.
		Although ABT uses the original Cantonese dialogue, speech often seemed poorly-integrated with the action; the result is a film that came across as a weakly-dubbed affair much of the time.

	A Better Tomorrow DVD review on AudioRevolution.com
		This dazzling, sentimental and handsome crime thriller from Hong Kong is the movie that at once started and established John Woo's reputation as one of the greatest of all action-film directors.
		Not only did 'A Better Tomorrow' establish John Woo as a major director -- the film was a huge hit everywhere it was released (which didn't include the U.S., really) -- but it abruptly shifted the direction of Chow Yun-Fat's career.
		The real leads of 'A Better Tomorrow' are Ti Lung and Leslie Cheung; both are very good, but it's Yun-Fat who steals the picture without even trying to.

	A Better Tomorrow (1986)
		A Better Tomorrow is a little gangster film that became nothing less than a phenomenon—a multiple award winning, box-office smashing tour-de-force from John Woo that single-handedly changed Hong Kong cinema forever.
		In A Better Tomorrow, we encounter characters motivated not by cynicism and self-interest, but by love and mutual respect—a prototype of sorts for future films in the "heroic bloodshed" genre.
		Devoid of much of the overdone "Woo-isms" that populate the director's later films (and have actually become groan-inducing clichés), A Better Tomorrow is a polished, resonant piece of HK filmmaking and an absolute genre essential.

	A Better Tomorrow
		Then a couple of year latter came A BETTER TOMORROW, which began by showing two highly successful, confident and jolly professionals (that their activity was illegal did not seem to matter much), who through tragic circumstances quite beyond their control lose almost everything: money, status, employment and even family.
		A BETTER TOMORROW’s tremendous success also very much benefited producer Tsui Hark and his Film Workshop and led to the formation of a new sub-genre the Heroic tragic Gangster flick also later dubbed “Heroic Bloodshed”.
		A BETTER TOMORROW has become a widely available classic and is appreciated as the great beginning of a master action filmmaker, although some complain that with it’s music and eighties looks it shows some sign of cinematic ageing.

	John Woo:King of Gunfire-A Better Tomorrow
		A Better Tomorrow also made actor Chow Yun Fat a superstar who was considered a "box-office poison" before his awarding-winning performance as noble gangster Mark.
		A Better Tomorrow story also contains a lot of the director's own emotions and experience and indeed the tender brotherhood relationship between Ho and Mark is actually a reflection of the friendship between director Woo and producer Tsui Hark.
		A Better Tomorrow tells the tale of two good friends, Sung Chi Ho(Ti Lung) and Mark Lee (Chow Yun Fat) who are also partners in a couterfeit money syndicate.Ah Ho is planning to quit the syndicate because his younger brother is unaware of his criminal status.

	DVD Review - A Better Tomorrow (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		"A Better Tomorrow" is the movie that created the image of Chow Yun-Fat as a suave, gun-wielding man with strong emotional ties that give his characters sensibility and sensitivity despite the fact that he commits utterly violent acts.
		Supported by a cast of equally skilled and known actors, "A Better Tomorrow" is a furious thrill ride that offers an unparalleled barrage for the senses.
		Given the fact that "A Better Tomorrow" comes with some very problematic images built-in, this DVD offers a spectacular rendition of the movie, even more so for a Hong Kong movie.

	Better Luck Tomorrow
		I believe it was at the halfway point of Justin Lin's Better Luck Tomorrow that I leaned to the person with whom I was watching the movie and said, "This is like that movie Juice." And she laughed.
		I believe at this point in the film the teenagers that drive the plot were plummeting to new lows in the world of drugs, wealth, and greed.
		Tomorrow's group of friends is one of highly intelligent and wealthy Asian-Americans growing up in a rich suburban neighborhood and getting through the trials of extracurricular activities.

		They’re better than those from the Hong Kong version of ‘A Better Tomorrow’, which is what I have.

	A Better Tomorrow
		Back in 1986, Chow Yun Fat, Leslie Cheung and John Woo were all wanna-be and after A Better Tomorrow they have rose to the top and continued to become Hollywood Superstars in John Woo and Chow Yun Fat and Leslie Cheung - a HK veteran Superstar.
		A Better Tomorrow is a ground breaking heroic bloodshed film about triad loyalty, honor, family and love.
		To the movie direction and action direction - John Woo the master of HK and Hollywood Action Cinema is at his close to best and although probably 500 less bullets than Hard Boiled, every bullet counts here and up till the final moment - no spoilers - is immensely emotional and a sense of victor.

	Better Luck Tomorrow
		Made for only $250,000, Justin Lin's Better Luck Tomorrow is a dark comedy about a group of over-achieving Asian-American high school students in Orange County, California, whose boredom and feelings about being outsiders lead to acts of petty crime and ultimately to serious violence.
		Instead, what Better Luck Tomorrow offers is a Quentin Tarantino wannabe, a hopped-up exercise in "cool" with extended shots of brutality and an ending that can politely be called morally dubious.
		No attempt is made to explain the feelings or thoughts of these boys either before or after they commit their acts, and that funny thing called "conscience" is as far removed from the film's reality as any adult authority figures.

	A Better Tomorrow 2 (1987) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		Partly a straightforward follow-up and partly a tongue-in-cheek parody, A Better Tomorrow II contains most of the celebrated Woo-isms that fans have come to love: heroic bloodshed, two-pistols-a-pumpin' action, and a little Christian symbolism to boot.
		A Better Tomorrow II has its moments (Chow Yun-Fat mocking his Mark persona for one, the ridiculously intense "Eat the rice!" scene is another), but overall the film is pretty stale when compared to Woo's other signature films.
		But, while Hard Boiled and The Killer might be better flicks, neither can match the pure aesthetic coolness of A Better Tomorrow II's exhilarating guns-a-blazin' finale.

		Watching A Better Tomorrow, I found myself being seduced all over again by the mixture of polish and raw energy of John Woo's Hong Kong films.

	[KFCC] Better Tomorrow, A
		Although A Better Tomorrow is an action film, don't expect as much off the wall slo-mo action as his later works.
		That may sound like a disappointing sentence, but overall the more realistic gunfights serve the story in a much better way.
		This is because when there is a gun or fist fight, no matter how short it is, the viewer is way more emotionally attached to the characters than in movies with less story development.

	Better Luck Tomorrow (2003): Reviews
		It has the virtue of Lin's tangy wit but it also suffers from the vice of a director who, torn between personal vision and wide public reach, tends to smother his ideas under a veneer of cool.
		Lin's nicely turned out picture is sometimes both predictable and a bit far-fetched narratively, but still provides a generally absorbing look at a slice of society normally taken for granted, both in life and onscreen.
		Perhaps the worst thing that could be said about Better Luck Tomorrow is that, on a slow night, it's easy to imagine these delinquents wanting to rent a film just like it.

		Billed as "somewhat new and improved", A Much Better Tomorrow is an update of Dan the Automator's 1996 EP of the same name (minus the 'Much').
		With a mere six tracks, and only three that are not a version of the title track, the A Better Tomorrow EP isn't a cohesive listening experience.
		With 11 tracks the A Much Better Tomorrow LP is certainly more of a complete album, but the guest vocals seem to water it down.

	Better Luck Tomorrow
		The protagonist of "Better Luck Tomorrow," Ben Manibang (Parry Shen), is an Asian-American high school student living in an affluent Spielberg-ian neighborhood in Southern California.
		"Better Luck Tomorrow" was produced by MTV Films, and director Justin Lin carries out the implied mandate that his film be as visually hot-wired as any music video (weird angles, slo-mo jetting into fast forward, etc.).
		Savvier than "The River's Edge," more meaningful than "The Breakfast Club," "Better Luck Tomorrow" is a coming-of-age film that takes the cliché of wanting to be cool and gives it a very particularized spin.

	Better Luck Tomorrow
		"Better Luck Tomorrow" is a morality tale about a group of honor students who become involved in petty crime, violence, drug use and excess in a frantic pursuit of self-discovery, recognition and public adulation, while at the same time maintaining their 'A' averages.
		Landing a part in "Better Luck Tomorrow" was both a victory and a relief for Roger Fan.
		Lin is quick to point out that "Better Luck Tomorrow" may follow a group of Asian American teenagers, but its themes of identity, alienation, angst and violence are universal to all ages.
