Here is the
domestic release of Steven Chow's masterpiece. Sort
of a "Gangs of New York" meets "Yojimbo" comedy-adventure
(with traditional kung fu thrown in to the mix for fun)! Set in the chaos
of pre-Revolutionary China, small time thief Sing wants to be a member
of the ruthless, underworld Axe Gang. He attempts to extort money from
the locals of "Pig Sty Alley," but his attempts at intimidation
actually attract the Axe Gang who want to teach the residents of the territory
a lesson. Soon, after being threaten by the "world's greatest killer,"
Sing finds himself in the "protection" business. He must dig
deep into his own psyche to discover his own special brand of martial
arts (the lost Buddha Fist style) to became a kung fu master.
