Our pals at Well Go USA are releasing the Vincent Zhao/Fan Siu Wong martial arts adventure,
Wu Dang, on Blu-ray and DVD in the US next week, and they've graced us with an exclusive early look at the trailer. The film is a neat little adventure with some impressive martial arts action, I liked it far more than I expected to. Here's the synopsis and trailer from Well Go USA!
There is a rumor: secret treasures hide in Wu Dang mountain. In the
early days of Republican China, an American man - greedy for gold and
hungry for riches - brings his daughter, a prodigy in martial arts, to
compete for a championship title in kung fu combat, while planning to
find and steal the riches for himself. It won't be easy. Fierce
competition, dedicated protectors, and unexpected romance block the path
to the Wu Dang fortune, and when the true nature of the prize is
discovered - everything you know about martial arts will change forever.
Starring Vincent Zhao, Dennis To, and Louis Fan, directed by Patrick
Leung (BLADE OF KINGS), and featuring action choreography by Corey Yuen
(SHAOLIN), WU DANG is a high-flying, fresh look at the wire-fighting
martial arts epics of the past, with a new twist: WU DANG is the first
film to examine the art of Wu Dang Kung Fu, and the mysticism of Ying
Yang.
