Things I Learned from Watching Hard Boiled
In the near future, Toorop (Vin Diesel) is a mercenary who takes the job of escorting a woman from Russia to China. While he thinks this is just an ordinary mission, he gradually finds out that his guest is carrying an organism that has the potential to become the next Messiah — and everybody wants to get their hands on it.
Oh the near future, it’s so wacky. Michelle Yeoh also stars.
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
The Mummy series goes from Egypt to China. Brendan Fraser reprises his role to do battle with Jet Li who plays the Dragon Emperor. Michelle Yeoh, Maria Bello, Luke Ford, Russell Wong, and Anthony Wong also star.
Inspired by true events, the film tells the story of George Hogg, a young British journalist, who rescues 60 orphaned children. He leads them on a treacherous 1000-mile journey along the Silk Road, through the Liu Pan Shan Mountains into the spectacular Gobi desert. Over the course of the journey he falls in love with a determined, self-trained nurse, and makes a friend in Chen, the leader of a Chinese partisan group. Madame Wang, a surviving aristocrat, assists in guiding them to safety in a remote village near the western end of China’s Great Wall.
Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Radha Mitchell, Chow Yun-Fat, and Michelle Yeoh star.
