About
Featuring a secret surprise second feature!
The charismatic Jet Li, and the absolutely legendary Brigitte Lin star in this astonishing film by director Ching Siu-tung (“A Chinese Ghost Story”) and producer Tsui Hark. While that should be all one needs to say, let us continue.
Brigitte Lin is incredible as Invincible Asia, a villain so determined to rule the world that — in accordance with instructions found in a sacred text — he castrates himself to slowly transform from man to woman, a process that will lead to their obtaining the ultimate supernatural power.
Meanwhile, Jet Li, having had enough of the chaotic martial world, hopes to retire in seclusion. Meeting and attracting the interest of Invincible Asia, however, changes everything.
Rated R. Cantonese w/English Subtitles. 108 minutes.
