Revenge of the Green Dragons

Posted: 10/06/2014

From Andrew Lau, director of INFERNAL AFFAIRS, which was remade into Academy Award Winning © THE DEPARTED by Martin Scorsese, Revenge of the Green Dragons resurrects the issue of illegal immigration from Asia and the government's challenges in containing it.

Watching this film is like following a trickle of blood from Hong Kong to New York. It asks us to reflect on important issues, such as how domestic violence pushes youth to lose themselves in the criminal underground. This movie will likely be consider the Chinese "Goodfellas."

REVENGE OF THE GREEN DRAGONS stars Justin Chon (TWILIGHT), Kevin Wu, Harry Shum Jr. (GLEE and the upcoming CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON II: THE GREEN DESTINY), Shuya Chang (CHINESE PUZZLE), Jin Auyeung (THE MAN WITH THE IRON FISTS), Eugenia Yuan (MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA) with Geoff Pierson (J. EDGAR), Billy Magnussen (the upcoming INTO THE WOODS) and Ray Liotta, reuniting him with Martin Scorsese for the first time in nearly 25 years since GOODFELLAS.
