Xanda? Anyone? Anyone?

Xanda (2004)
Director: Marco Mak
Producer: Tsui Hark
Cast: Sang Wei-lin, Zhao Zi-long, Zhang Hong-jun, Ni Jing-yang, Li Tie, Teng Jun

Synopsis
Set in the near future, Xanda is the name of a modern form of martial arts focusing on extreme speed and power that has arisen in China's heartland. A former fighter turned Xanda coach named Tieh (Zhang Hong-jun) relentlessly trains Lung, his son (Zhao Zi-long) to be the next champion. But after he suffers a defeat by the reigning Xanda champion (Teng Jun), Lung's friend Qiang (Sang Wei-lin) combines his traditional kung fu expertise with unorthodox Xanda training in order to become the next champion.

Uh, anyone get this that can provide a review?

Not yet, but it's in my next DDD shipment. Just have to find other movies to buy.

Looks pretty nice. Marco Mak's a decent filmmaker also, so I'm really looking forward to seeing it. The 'actors' are also apparently real fighters.

I wish Tsui Hark would go ahead and direct something already, though, this hiatus is getting annoying.

DDDhouse is screwed up so the card I use doesn't work anymore. Their customer service isn't worth squat for this problem.

I'll try to order it from Layoyo, but I can't promise anything. I read it wasn't too hot as a movie either. Just okay, but nothing more.
