Welcome to Gaia! ::

Here's the basic info on it:

This is the movie based on the popular Hong Kong comic...

We begin with Tiger Wong - an incredible and exceptionally skilled martial artist specialising in fighting with his legs. He has a strong sense of justice and good-ness running throughout this movie, which is explained why later in the movie. He is dining in a restaurant when he happens to come across a fight involving a triad, and unknowingly takes a gold medal that the triads are after. This gold medal is the Lousha Death plaque offered by the Lousha gate - a largest criminal organisation. And so the pursuit begins to retrieve it. And during this fight, we see Dragon Wong enter and save Tiger when retrieving the plaque for his gang boss. This is the time when a young youth called Turbo Shek (specialising in the use of his nun-chakus) comes in to join Tiger as he wants to be accepted into the Dragon Tiger Gate.

The story continues with revelations between the relationships of the characters and some love interests and vengeance plus more brilliant fighting sequences.

characters

Tiger Wong : Nicholas Tse
Dragon Wong: Donnie Yen
Turbo Shek: Shawn Yue
Ma Xaoling: Dong Jie
Lousha: Li Xiao-Ran

I thought this film was great with its action sequences which Donnie Yen as the Action Producer created as well training Nicholas and Shawn to become capable of pulling off those action shots as they have never been in an action movie before like this. The action sequences kind of gave off the manga feel as it made you go 'WOW' at the colours and fast moving pace of it. I didn't think much of the love relationships that they implied were there as for one, the Lousha and Dragon one was only created for this movie and never appeared in the comic...well Lousha doesn't even exist in the comic! Overall..thumbs up!!!

oh yes. . i heard of this movie. . it sounded interesting. . . .
