In part 6 of the Once Upon a Time in China series, the legendary Master Wong (Jet Li) travels to America to check on his new martial arts studio. When he accidentally bumps his head and loses his memory during the journey, he falls in with Native Americans and gets to show off his fancy kung fu moves to a rival tribe — by kicking their butts. Rosamund Kwan co-stars as Wong’s fiancée, who must catch up with him and restore his memory.

Director

Sammo Hung

Sammo Hung (born Hung Kam Po, 7 January 1952) is a Hong Kong actor, martial artist, producer and director, known for his work in many kung fu films and Hong Kong action cinema. He has been a fight choreographer for, amongst others, Jackie Chan, King Hu, and John Woo. Hung is one of the pivotal figures who spearheaded the Hong Kong New Wave movement of the 1980s, helped reinvent the martial arts genre and started the vampire-like Jiang Shi genre. He is widely credited with assisting many of his compatriots, giving them their starts in the Hong Kong film industry, by casting them in the films he produced, or giving them roles in the production crew. Hung has starred in 75 films, and worked on over 230, beginning as a child actor whilst still attending the China Drama Academy. Upon leaving the opera school, he worked as an extra and stuntman, and progressed through other roles including fight choreographer, stunt co-ordinator, action director, actor, writer, producer and director. —IMDb… read more
