'Let The Bullets Fly' On UK DVD

 

Actor-director Jiang Wen's action comedy 'Let The Bullets Fly' is now available to own on UK DVD, courtesy of Metrodome Distribution. The film stars Wen as a wandering bandit who arrives in a small town in ancient China, posing as its new mayor, usurping power and exploiting its wealth.

Synopsis

China, 1919. Bandit Scarface Zhang (Jiang Wen) leads his posse in a fatal train robbery that leaves only Tang (Ge You), a rich man who buys governorships all over China, and his wife (Carina Lau) alive. To save his life, Tang lies that he was only accompanying the new major of Goose Town. Looking for a big payday, Zhang assumes the governorship and turns Goose Town upside down. The problem is that order is created by the town crime lord Huang Si Lang (Chow Yun Fat), and he is not ready to lose his iron grip. Soon, Huang and Zhang are outwitting each other in a violent game, with Tang constantly shifting allegiance to protect his own skin.

Artwork and trailer are below, and you can order the DVD now from Amazon.co.uk.
