Trailer
Once Upon A Time In China
1991
Fists and feet fly like lightning bolts when Wong Fei-hung (Jet Li) defends a martial arts school from corrupt government officials, a renegade swordsman and an illegal slave ring. The finale, in an old warehouse, is awesome, with Li using every square inch of the structure in his intricate fight choreography. A classic example of the Hong Kong school of filmmaking.
Never was a Hero needed more...
