Triads versus Yakuza. Three cultures collide as an Italian-American family try to survive the gang turf warfare that erupts between the incumbent triads and the encroaching yakuza in LA's Chinatown, in a fast-paced fictional tale that involves drugs, weapons, beautiful women, and non-stop kick-ass action that takes us from the mean streets and beaches of LA to the secluded mountains of Hong Kong and sordid nightlife of Tokyo. To maintain the peace, a small restaurant proprietor must pay protection money to the local triads until the newly-arrived yakuza become greedy and take the restaurant for themselves, kidnapping the restaurant owner in the process. The scene is set for the owner's son to return from his travels in Asia and fight his way through the forces of both yakuza and triads to get his father back. Featuring relentless action scenes from one of Hong Kong's finest fight choreographers, together with martial art actors both old and new from Greater China, Japan and the West, Triads versus Yakuza is a tour-de-force in English- language, kung-fu action films. |
