- Synopsis:
Showcasing once again the superb on screen fighting power of Asian Superstar Jet LI, Hong Kong's box office smash 'Dr. Wai' is set in the early Twentieth Century where Wai embarks on an action packed quest in search of "The Scriptures with No Words". Along with his trusty assistant Pao they encounter many obstacles on their way, including the lovely-but-deadly Yu Fung, a top agent for the Japanese who is attracted to Dr. Wai's boyish looks, and the lethal fighting skills of underworld gangster Ngai, who falls prey to the scriptures and transforms into a powerful monster to confront Jet in the final showdown. Ching Siu Tung, director of such classics as "A Chinese Ghost Story', 'The Heroic Trio' and its sequel 'The Executioners', weaves his stylish magic set against magnificent backdrops, delivering an epic action adventure in true Hong Kong Style. There's also an excellent supporting role from super villain Billy chow and more - Watch out Indiana Jones, your Chinese cousin on his way into town! - Actors:
