Louis Koo and Aaron Kwok, who also co-starred in "Twilight Warriors: The Battle of Kowloon Walled City," take on double leading roles! A masterpiece youth action film directed by Hong Kong's representative filmmaker Johnnie To during his peak!
This is one of the masterpieces released by Hong Kong's representative filmmaker Johnnie To in 2004, during his peak. Louis Koo and Aaron Kwok, who also co-starred in the hit film "Twilight Warriors: The Battle of Kowloon Walled City" (2024), take on double leading roles. This is an unconventional youth action film that uses Judo, a martial art originating in Japan, as its motif, pays homage to director Akira Kurosawa, and simultaneously quotes the theme song from the TV drama "Sugata Sanshiro" (1970) starring Muga Takewaki, which was broadcast in Hong Kong in the 1970s and was very popular.
[Story]Sito Pou, a legendary athlete who suddenly quit Judo several years ago, now works as a hired master and band leader, playing guitar and drowning his sorrows in alcohol, living a dissolute life. At this time, a man named Tony appears at the bar and challenges him to a Judo match. Although Sito initially ignores him, he inexplicably begins to like Tony when Tony suddenly takes the stage and starts playing the saxophone. Soon, a woman named Siu-mon, who dreams of becoming a singer in Japan, appears at the bar, and the strange lives of the three begin. Furthermore, Sito's bar becomes a place where they compete in Judo techniques and fulfill their unfulfilled dreams, as his former rival, Ray Acon, also arrives...
