Hero

Hero is loosely based on the classic Boxer from Shantung (1972), starring Chen Kuan Tai and directed by Chang Cheh. Takeshi Kaneshiro (Ma Wing Jing) is one of thousands of refugees moving from Shantung to Shanghai, with his elder brother Ma Tai Cheung (Yuen Wah). Shanghai is governed by two triad bosses, Tam See (Yuen Biao) and Yang Shuang (Yuen Tak). Ma Wing Jing decides he wants to be to someone big, someone powerful, and tries to make a name for himself. After befriending Tam See he manages to take some of Yang's provinces which obviously starts a bitter and bloody turf war. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)
