Indomina Entertainment has released a badass new trailer for their exciting looking martial arts film Flying Swords of Dragon Gate. The movie was directed by Tsui Hark (Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame), and stars Jet Li. This was actually inspired by the films Dragon Gate Inn (1966) and New Dragon Gate Inn (1992). This time around they've created an epic looking film that puts a major focus on its 3D element. If you're a fan of martial arts movies, then this is a film for you.
Flying Swords of Dragon Gate picks up three years after the infamous Dragon Inn was burnt down in the desert when its innkeeper JADE vanished. A new gang of marauders had taken over: innkeepers by day, and treasure hunters by night. The inn is the rumored location of a lost city buried under the desert, and its hidden treasure would only be revealed by a gigantic storm every sixty years. The gang used the inn as a front to locate the lost treasure. The storm is arriving. But the situation becomes more complicated when a pregnant concubine who escaped from the palace came to the inn. The concubine was saved by a mysterious woman WEN, and the two fled to the Dragon Inn in hiding. Hot on their trail were the Imperial Assassins led by the powerful eunuch YU, followed by the righteous general ZHAO who was determined to take down Yu to restore order in the palace. As the gigantic storm loomed in the horizon, ready to wipe out everything in sight, the cat-and-mouse game inside Dragon Inn grew fiercer. Everyone was trapped, and there’s nowhere to go. Fortune, love and vengeance, could very well be gone with the wind…
The movie is scheduled to be released in IMAX 3D on August 31st. Watch the trailer, and let us know if it gets you pumped up to see this movie.
