Kong's #1 Blockbuster Hit of 2010 starring Chow Yun-fat

This "Spaghetti
Western style" actioner was HK's biggest hit of 2011 and framed a
major comeback role for Chow Yun-fat. The story is set in China, early
20th Century, during that country's "Old West" days. Bandit
chief Zhang assumes the identity of a new sheriff and relocates in a remote,
rich provincial town. However, his dastardly get-rich plan doesn't go
so well when he's confronted by a local badman who wants the wealth for
himself.
