Four Dragons

2008 · 92 min

A straightforward martial-arts adventure with earnest heroes, clear villains, and plenty of old-fashioned fight scenes.

Overview
When 19th-century Chinese immigrants find themselves fighting against a powerful lord and a vengeful gang with secretive aims, they summon the ancient power of Wushu to wage an epic battle of good vs. evil. Under the leadership of Tin Sok, the four "dragons" -- Dragon (Robin Ho), Tiger (David Bao), Ace (Kuan Fei Jun) and Blaze (Michael Chinn) -- set out to restore the balance of justice. C.L. Hor directs Malaysia's first martial arts offering.
