Chasing The Dragon
Stars: Donnie Yen, Andy Lau, Philip Keung, Wilfred Lau, Wilfred Lau, Kent Cheng, Bryan Larkin, Ben Ng, Ken Tong, Niki Chow, Michelle Hu, Wai-Man Chan, Lawrence Chou, Wong Chun, Jai Day | Written and Directed by Wong Jing
Crippled Ho, an illegal immigrant from mainland China sneaks into British-colonized Hong Kong in 1963, a den of corruption, drugs and violence. Working as a thug for a local gang, Ho comes to the attention of corrupt cop Lee Rock. The unlikely duo team up and set about taking over the city’s thriving, dangerous underworld.
Directed by Hong Kong film veteran Wong Jing (God of Gamblers), Chasing the Dragon has been described as a Chinse version of Scarface – and its easy to see why. Both films are something of a period piece: Scarface was set in the opulent 80s when drug dealers became rock stars, whereas Chasing the Dragon is set in the corrupt,...

Donnie Yen and Andy Lau are the embodiment of brotherhood in Well Go USA’s Chasing The Dragon. They practically ruled the streets of 1974 Hong Kong as two of the most infamous outlaws on record. Both Donnie and Andy Lau give fiery performances that surely equaled the passion and zest of their real-life counterparts. Chasing the Dragon is based on a true story, which is even more thrilling and scary. The Blue-Ray combo will drop on January 23rd. You’ll definitely need to cop that because watching it once will not be enough.
If you are a fan of Scarface, arguably the most iconic gangsta movie ever, this movie is for you. That’s basically what this story is like, except in China. Donnie Yen stimulates the senses as China’s real-life drug lord, Cripple Ho. Cripple Ho is merciless and cold-blooded but with a deeply ingrained sense of loyalty.
