Ladies and gets… you’re about to witness one of the sharpest, most diabolically entertaining and thrilling martial arts movie experiences of your life. It’s 100 Yards, the latest period action drama from co-directors Xu Haofeng and Xu Junfeng, and starring Jacky Heung and Andy On, and it finally has an official trailer with a theatrical U.S.release date set from Well Go USA.
In volatile 1920s Tianjin, a mere decade after China’s last imperial dynasty was overthrown, a clandestine martial arts circle arose to deter crime and maintain peace between rival martial arts schools. But after a renowned master dies and names his apprentice—rather than his son—as his successor, he unwittingly kicks off a fierce power struggle that will bring the entire city to the brink of chaos.
You’re welcome to read my review from its International Premiere at TIFF last year for obligatory feedback but I loved the shit out of it, as has anyone who’s seen it by now.
This goddamn kickass movie is coming to theaters and digital on November 8. Catch the trailer, and get your tickets as soon as they’re available in your area. See this one on the big screen. You won’t regret it.
