This comprehensive English-language chronicle of the Hong Kong action cinema investigates its two primary subgenres, the martial arts film and the gunplay-heavy gangster movie. These types of films are explored through clips of classic and rare films, behind-the-scenes footage, and interviews with HK luminaries like Samo Hung, Simon Yam, Yukari Oshima, Cynthia Rothrock, John Woo, and Yuen Woo-Ping.
