Check Out The Full Trailer For Gordon Chan's THE FOUR 3D

Not too far off from its August 22 release is director Gordon Chan‘s epic fantasy martial arts action thriller finale, The Four 3D. I haven’t seen either of the first two films yet to have an opinion about this particular franchise, although I will say that while these films may not be a favorite for some, needless to say, its success speaks for itself. Chan clearly aims to dazzle throughout his epic storytelling, and the latest official trailer following last week’s teaser is an extension of that very courtesy. Besides, who can really resist a battle between good and evil that looks this awesome? SYNOPSIS: The reputation of the Four constables survives, but since Emotionless’s (Crystal Liu Yifei) departure, there have been changes at the Divine Constabulary. The four Coldblood (Deng Chao), Iron Hands (Collin Chou), Life Snatcher (Ronald Cheng), rescue Zhuge Zhengwo (Anthony Wong) from An Yunshan’s mountain fortress, […]

Actor Samuel L. Jackson‘s latest role after Spike Lee’s Oldboy remake reverts back once more to the cinematic live-action rendering of Japanese manga/anime storytelling, this time in filmmaker Ralph Ziman‘s upcoming mystery science fiction action crime thriller, Kite. Based on Yasuomi Umetsu’s 1998 original video anime, Ziman‘s revisionist adaptation takes you into a not-too-distant future where terrorism and financial collapse have turned society into a state run by a corrupt police force that also benefits from the trafficking of young homeless girls.

This week, we now have a brand new trailer and five-minute clip montage […]
