URGENT NOTE FOR VIDEO ASIA TITLES: Video Asia DVDs are generally of very poor audio/video quality, as most are taken from VHS or equivalent sources. Some even have the wrong films on them. Their "anamorphic" releases are usually double-cropped--that is, they take a cropped full screen print and then crop off the top and bottom to make it look "widescreen", and then stretch it anamorphically, leaving you with about 25% of the original picture. We offer these disgraceful DVDs on a close-out basis only. We will not accept returns of any Video Asia DVDs for any reason--please buy at your own risk!

Plot:	Two best friends travel to Shanghai, where they quickly rise up in the echelons of Shanghai's underworld...that is, until the Big Boss pits them against each other in a bloody finale.
Overview:	Kung fu idol Chen Kwan Tai directs and stars in this brilliant film about betrayal, honor, and greed. Two best friends (Chen and Jimmy Lee) travel to Shanghai in search of fame and fortune. Being formidable fighters they soon rise up in the echelons of Shanghai's underworld, controlled by the Daddy: Chen Sing. The Big Boss then pits friend against friend in the bloody finale. A true classic in every sense: violence, technique, storyline, and great choreography from the team that brought you "Iron Monkey".
