What critics compared Birdy to
Propelled by Joseph Koo’s memorable score that brilliantly integrated Peter Gabriel’s atmospheric piece of 1984’s Birdy (a little-seen drama starring then-young Matthew Modine and Nicolas Cage), the story — credited to John Woo, Chan Hing-Kai and Leung Suk-Wah — is a classic heroic bloodshed template.
