Watch A Full Fight Scene From ONCE UPON A TIME IN SHANGHAI
After the revealing of a new poster and synopsis, director Wong Ching-Po‘s long-awaited kung fu epic, Once Upon A Time In Shanghai, dealt another sign of life with even more teaser clips from the film, edited together with talking segments from a few of its cast and crew, including lead stars, Phillip Ng and Andy On, and the film’s action director, Yuen Wo-Ping. On Wednesday, Wong’s latest revival to Shaw Brothers territory is now sharing a treat with the public online viewing audience featuring a pulse-pounding fight scene with Ng and On going toe-to-toe, timed only by a burning cigarette.
No teasers here, just nothing short of a complete fight scene from start to finish, which for what it’s worth, won’t be a huge spoiler for all of us as the world awaits the film’s expanded release after its January 8, 2014 date for China.
Stick around for more updates after this. And by all means, enjoy the fresh new clip below.
Once Upon A Time In Shanghai also stars Jiang Luxia, Sammo Hung, Michelle Hu, Wang Chunyuan, Chen Kuentai, Fung Hak-On and Mao Junjie.
In the 1900’s, MA YONG ZHEN joined many hopeful laborers to seek work in Shanghai. Remaining honest and refusing to join a gang, he became friends with gangster LONG QI. Japanese spy HASHIMOTO, furious that Long turned down his proposal, tries to kill both of them. Ma luckily survives, and is now determined to help his people by decimating the bad elements in Shanghai.

the fight was good…kinda like mixed reaction.
one thing i dislike from the start is the opening fight with slow motion, kinda pointless.
hopefully the rest of the movie is good.
