Original subtitles

When I grew up, my father used to tell me and my elder brother

that a gangster life is full of enemies -

in front are policemen and behind, sharp knives are waiting.

Wanting to escape that dead end, one must exchange his own life.

Unfortunately, my father passed away too early

� before we could realize what he meant.

You must know that we really want to help you.

You are still young.

Outside this place, there is someone needing you.

At the end, my elder brother and I had to pay for our stupidity.

I wish my dad was still alive.

Where I grew up is a small alley

Every day, there was always a wounded gangster covered with blood walking home.

Our kids liked to follow him to learn the trade.

Hey, follow me.

brought to You by falang01

What is going to happen to us?

Happen to us?

Don�t worry.

How do you know?

You were being followed by them.

I will stay here. They will not follow you.

No, we will go together. Get on!

Run, run. Do you want to die?

Let�s go home! Go home.

Go home!

Go home!

Now, do you want to go with me or not?

Where are we going now?

To my elder brother�s place.

Follow them!

Auntie, please buy this for me

Recently, I notice your hair is getting prettier!

Follow them!

Bastard!

Go! You Bastard!

Well?

Why don�t we continue chasing them?

Bastard! You want to die?

In there is the area of Hung Cho Lon.

Why are you looking at me? Look at him!

I surrender! I surrender!

You surrender?

Hey, hit him!

Fight back!

Why are you acting like a sissy?

Hit him harder for me!

Hit or be hit.

Kill or be killed.

Understand?

After the King prayed, a strong dusty wind arrived.

The earth and the sky were shaking.

The Holy Kim Quy appeared and said:

�Your Highness, your enemy is behind your back�.

King An Duong Vuong turned his back and saw goose feathers flying behind his path.

The King finally understood everything.

He drew his sword and killed Princess My Chau.

Then, the King followed the Holy Kim Quy down to the Water Kingdom.

I will wait for you here.

Massage me more ,

so our son could grow up to be a gangster like his daddy

To be a hero like his daddy.

Elder Brother.

Why do you return?

I have something to tell you.

Big brother...

Lam and Huong escaped to Cho Lon!

So, why did you come back here?

Let me talk to Hung Cho Lon.

His wife is pregnant.

He would not dare do anything foolish.

There is no need for you to get involved.

We will take that girl home.

You must ask Tai Nhot for his forgiveness in front of me.

I will never do such thing, Elder Brother.

When we were in trouble, you left me and our gang.

Now, you come back and ask me to help you.

But, I love Huong.

So, what are our gang brothers to you?

I�m sorry.

Lam.

Brother Hung has changed.

He has a family now.

You go inside.

Let me talk to him.

Even though you are my blood brother,

I could not let our gang brothers get involved because of you.

I also will not let Huong go.

You wait for me�

Okay...

If you could stay alive!

From now on,

dead or alive,

I do not need your concern.

Do not go outside if not necessary.

Call me if you need anything.

We are safe here.

Do you want anything?

Get Hung for me.

What is your name so I could tell Brother Hung.

Long Mong Ga, little bastard!

�I want Lam and that bitch � Tai Nhot�

Go back and tell Tai Nhot

Don't take anything that I cannot give away

Brother Hung, let�s keep it friendly.

Hey, your wife is pregnant.

Do you want to see your unborn child?

Damn, I am talking nicely to you.

What are you doing?

You trespassed my place

then threatened my family.

In front of my brothers.

Do not show me any respect.

I will treat you as nice ...

as you�ve treated me!

Don�t ever toy me with my family, understand?

Brother Hung

If Tai Nhot brings his whole gang here ,

we might not be able to fight against them!

What are you talking about?

Ask all our brothers to come here

Why are you looking for me?

Come inside to have a drink with me.

Wait for me outside

It has been a while since we have a drink with each other.

I don�t want to bother you.

It was you, you kept hiding from me!

I only want to be alone.

Not hiding from you.

Cheers!

If you want to meet Trang,

I will search everywhere to find her for you.

You only need to say it.

Even if I die,

I will do it.

Never mind my own business.

Do you remember

when we were poor?

We had to share a loaf of bread.

You want me to go to Cho Lon with you?

I want you take our brothers there to teach them a lesson.

Only because of a worthless girl?

You don�t know what you are saying!

She is no different from other girls that you had before.

Don�t talk about the past.

Now, everybody knows she is my girlfriend so I want you to help me.

Did I ever refuse you whenever you needed something?

You gave. You want something in return. Everything has a price

Whom are you talking to?

If you want, I will go to Cho Lon myself and ask Hung to tell Lam that he should apologize to you.

Everything would be solved within an hour.

After that, everybody could sleep well tonight.

Entire Saigon city would laugh at me. Do you understand?

I swear to you. If I don�t teach them a lesson, I would not be a human.

Tai.

Please let me stay outside this conflict.

If that�s what you want...

then so be it.

Wait.

Please do me a favor, stay away from Bi.

Are we going to Cho Lon now? - Go home!

But, Brother Tai is having problems now - That�s not your business.

Do you know what am I thinking?

I am thinking we are going to a place.

A place where we could have a normal life like everybody.

I also want that.

Then, why don�t we go now?

Please give me more time.

How long?

Tai is my best childhood friend.

And, your gang brothers are your family, right?

We are not familiar with Cho Lon.

If something happens, we could not control it.

What does Hung have that makes you are so scare of him?

Brother Tai, leave Hung to me.

I swear with you, I will fix him.

Don�t underestimate Hung. If we enter his territory without�

Without what?

You think if we don�t have Phong, we could not fight against Hung?

SAY IT!

Are you okay?

Do you regret what we have done?

Why did you leave without saying a word to me?

I am afraid you would report to Brother Hung. Understand?

You are a bad friend.

I thought you have already pawned it? - I�ve just redeemed it

You are crazy! Redeeming a dead watch!

Hey, how did you met Huong?

It is a long story. I will tell you later.

Do you know because of her, our brothers are going to fight with Tai Nhot�s gang?

They have arrived, haven�t they?

Don�t worry. I will find a way to talk to Tai Nhot.

Go to bed now.

Did you eat pigswill?

What are you doing?

It is you?

Brother Hung, we could not go out with our empty hands.

Nobody is going to fight. We only go out to talk to Tai Nhot.

You think he brought all his gang here just for talking? We have to be careful!

Brother Hung, do not worry about us. Just do what you gotta do.

Brother Hung

I must go out with my brothers.

You

Please do not leave me alone

Where are you going?

Going where is my business. Let me go!

You think going there fighting is a great thing to do?

Have you ever killed anybody? Ever seen anybody get killed?

But, you know, our brothers need us.

Talk back at me?

When a person gets hit, not only his body is hurt.

From now on, I don�t want to hear you talking about fighting. Understand?

My brother made a mistake.

But is there anybody here ever not making a mistake? Even you and I.

So, you are saying that�s it?

I will punish him.

If we are fighting, our brothers will get hurt. Go ahead tell me your price.

I thought you took all your gang here to fight with me.

Never thought you could realize your limitation.

Good!

If you surrender and leave Cho Lon, I will forgive you!

You want Cho Lon?!

Why not?

I am talking serious with you.

DAMNIT!

I am not joking either!

I advise you accept my condition.

KILL THEM ALL!

Brothers, retreat!

KILL THEM!

Let�s split up!

You guys go the other direction. - Okay! Go! Go!

Go find Kien for me.

Find Kien where? - Find where?!

Find him! Damn you!

Nghia!

Brothers, run!

Run after them!

Stop!

Stop.

Trang.

Every morning when we wake up we would want to change something.

But at the end, our life is still the same.

Nothing changes until it is too late.

I am not like them.

No, I cannot keep it. It is your dad�s.

Don�t ever sell it.

It�s alright. You will be okay.

Nghia!

I know you would never leave me.

I do not come here for you.

You�d better stop now.

Until I see the corpse of both Hung and his brother

this matter is not settled.

Listen everybody!

I have this to tell you so you could think it over.

This is their personal affairs. It should not be anyone else's concern.

Now, come with me if you want to stay alive.

If someone stole what you treasure most,

I swear, I would fix him for you.

The thing that I treasure most is my honor.

If I let Hung sit on my head,

would others respect you?

Brother Cu. Come home with me.

Where were you when we needed you?

I could not continue fighting any more.

Without you, Tai Nhot could have sold drugs a long time ago.

So much money, dear. He would not pass this chance.

Sometimes, people should fight for their own safety, my dear.

Where are you going? Why did you run away?

What�s going on, elder brother?

I also want to know.

I saw you brought Brother Nghia�s corpse back.

Everybody is covered with blood. That�s my fault.

Don�t think like that.

You know what I am saying is correct. If I am still staying here, you guys would continue fighting.

Nothing would happen and you don�t need to go anywhere.

Stop acting! She is lying!

Why would I lie to you?

Is it true that Tai Nhot ordered you to seduce Lam?

Are you crazy?

Speak. Is it true? Is it true like he said?

Are you going to let Huong go?!

I'm asking for the last time!

It's true!

Tai Nhot told me to be friendly with you.

What are you talking about?

When Brother Tai forced me to ask you run away, I didn�t know why.

When I finally understand his scheme, it was too late.

I planned to tell you everything.

But, I could not. Running away was my only solution.

From the beginning till now you have been playing with me.

It seemed like that from the beginning but I sincerely have loved you since I don�t know when!

If I meet her again, do not blame me!

Get lost.

I am so sorry.

I TOLD YOU TO GET LOST!

Let me.

Could you fight again?

Whether I am hurt or not. We could not win except...

... except we have Phong Bui.

Did I give you a permission to contact me?

They blamed it all on me!

If I stay, Hung Cho Long will kill me!

Bi.

I have a gift for you.

Have you ever had this drug before?

Put a lot of this on top of your little boy.

Many pretty chicks would be crawling under your legs.

You will feel great.

You win them. I will let you play this game.

Little bastard, you came here to die?

I want to see Tai Nhot.

You want to talk secretly?

I don�t come here to talk to you. ASK TAI NHOT TO COME OUT!

Wait!

So, why did you come here?

Come to play one-to-one with you.

Let me kill this mother fucker!

Not your turn.

I challenge YOU, little bastard.

Why do you need this?

To kill him!

Your chance has come. Do not dissapoint me.

What are you waiting for? Kill him!

If I were you, I would think carefully before killing that boy.

Tomorrow, Bi and I will move out.

Please don�t. I will never let Bi get involved.

I�m not afraid of you. I am afraid of your enemies.

I swear to you. Whoever killed Bi. He also will die.

From now on, you and I finished! Understand?

Very well. At least, let me help you

fix Hung to avenge Bi.

You are not worth doing it!

Four of a kind! Go ahead!

Lap, inform Brother Hung!

I came here not because of Tai Nhot.

You do not need to explain. I�ve been waiting for you.

Even I die, Tai Nhot will never get Cho Lon!

I will tell him that.

Please stop.

Do me a favor.

Take my wife out of here immediately.

No, I cannot go anywhere.

I stay here with you. I am not going!

Don�t touch me! Don�t touch me!

Don�t touch me! Don�t touch me!

I'll take you to the hospital.

It has not finished yet.

We will meet in the afterlife.

Where are you going?

Are you going to leave me alone?

I only want a moment with you.

So, you don�t want to meet Trang?

Let me tell you a secret.

Before Trang left she came to see me.

She begged me to let you leave our gang.

Just like you promised her.

Have pity on me.

When she left, I felt sad for both of you and happy for you and me.

Why did you wait until now to tell me this?

Because I know where is she now.

What did you do to her?

She begged me not to let you know. And I kept my promise with her.

What do you want?

What you want is more important.

I will take Cho Lon for you. Then, you will let me meet Trang.

Do you remember this place? You and I often came here for fighting.

Why not remember? Every time, you beat me to death here.

I wanted you to be like me. I didn't want to see anybody bullying you.

I know.

Did you know I gave money to those kids to beat you up?

Even when you surrendered they must not stop.

Beause I knew you would do that.

When you lied down on the ground and asked me to help you

I only stood watching. But at that moment,

I also felt pain like you.

Hit or get hit. Killed or get killed.

The day you left was the happiest day of my life.

Because it was the day You escaped this dark hole.

Now, I want you to do me one thing: Leave this place before they come.

Why?

Cho Lon is gone.

And our gang brothers?

You want to take them to their graves?

Brother Hung does not fight them.

Then who? Who will fight against them?

You?

Everybody must have one glory period. Brother Hung was also like that.

Mother Fucker! What are you talking about?

I don�t care about Phong Bui!

Whoever wants to kill Brother Hung must walk over my dead body!

Whoever wants to follow me, step over here!

If I am still alive tomorrow, I don�t want to see your fucking face in our Cho Lon!

They have so many people like this. Just like you! How could you fight them?

If you want to run away like before, go ahead! Nobody will stop you.

Tai Nhot wants to lure us out. That�s why he did not come here.

You meant we should stay here... hiding from them?

This whole mess happened because of you. You have no right to shout here!

I think that would be enough for tonight.

It would be wise for you to drop your blade. In order for your brothers to stay alive.

You crawl under my legs first. Then we'll talk!

I�ve finished talking.

Open your eyes, baby. Watch while they die.

Come with us.

I will stay with Brother Hung.

Do you think Brother Hung would want you to die like that?

I left once.

I thought everything would be different. But that did not happen.

Because I have always been a coward. Do you understand?

Are you going now?

If not, we will go first.

Go ahead!

But in the future, do not look into the mirror.

Because the bastard in there is your biggest enemy.

You think we would beat them?

To win, you have to beat yourself first.

Hey! Lam! Quan! Are you guys crazy?!

You want to die together? Lam!

Crazy! I want to be crazy too!

We will have our final showdown with Tai Nhot here.

You go. Leave Lam to us.

No.

I have to meet Trang.

If you stay alive tonight, what will you do tomorrow?

This is my girlfriend.

We have not seen each other for a long time.

If tonight I am not gone, tomorrow I will run back to her with a big hug!

I never expected you to be THAT romantic!

Hey, do not underestimate me!

Everybody! They are here! They are here!

Do not force me to kill more.

Then let me kill you first.

Stay here. Watch for him.

Take our brothers that way. - Follow me.

Too dark, can�t see my way.

KILL THEM!

RUN!

Run! Run!

Quan!

You are finished.

Really?

Cho Lon belongs to you now.

Thank you.

Now...

I take you to see Trang.

You will be reunited with both of them soon.

YOU kill him. It will hurt him more.

Lam! Get up! Get up! Get up!

Brother Hung.

You did not give up, little rascal.

So, don�t leave me.

Elder brother? Elder Brother! ELDER BROTHER!

They only wanted to catch Tai Nhot and his drug dealer connections.

My job is getting information for police to collect their evidence.

But, I had another goal. I wanted to go with Huong. Unfortunately, it was Tai Nhot�s trap.

They had to face a difficult decision. End our plan or let two gangs exterminate each other.

In fact, nobody had to die.

Today, I would like to tell you a story.

I hope you can learn something.

How long have you been here?

Three years.

And this story is like a warning.

I�ve seen the face of Brothers Hung, Nghia and Quan in their eyes.

Hopefully, they can see the desire for peace and repentance in mine.

Anybody have chewing gum?

- Good! If you work hard, the superior would pardon you soon.

Soon? It is still far away. But I know it will come. I always feel it

7 Years Later

Life goes on peacefully just like my elder brother had wished for.

The past is no longer present here. It's as if we were never there.

Even during the most lonely day of my life,

I still do not think of Huong.

And I will never remember Cho Lon.
