The Adventurers Limited Edition Blu-Ray
The Adventurers is the only collaboration between action master Ringo Lam (City on Fire) and Hong Kong superstar Andy Lau (Infernal Affairs) and is an explosive tale of heroic bloodshed starring Rosamund Kwan (Once Upon a Time in China), David Chiang (Election), and Victor Wong (Big Trouble in Little China).
Wai Lok-yan (Lau) was only eight years old when his parents were killed before his eyes in Cambodia, where his father had been working for the CIA during Pol Pot's rise to power at the end of the Cambodian civil war. Yan is taken to Thailand by his father's colleague Shang (Chiang) and grows up to join the Thai Air Force, where he discovers that his father's killer Ray Lui (Paul Chun, Royal Tramp), who was once a double agent, has now become a wealthy arms dealer based in the United States. With the help of the CIA, Yan plans to get close to Lui and get his revenge by assuming a false identity and winning the trust of Lui's daughter Crystal (Jacklyn Wu, A Moment of Romance) - but first he must go undercover in San Francisco's criminal underworld to rescue her from the clutches of the criminal Black Tiger Gang.
The Adventurers was made shortly before Ringo Lam left for Hollywood to make Maximum Risk with Jean-Claude Van Damme and is a hidden gem among the many heroic bloodbath films produced in Hong Kong in the 1990s. Eureka Classics is proud to present the film on Blu-ray from a brand new 2K restoration.
