Paradox | Blu-ray & DVD (Well Go USA)
Today’s Deal on Fire is the Blu-ray for Paradox (read our review) from director Wilson Yip (Ip Man 3) and producer Soi Cheang (SPL II).
Paradox stars Louis Koo (League of Gods) as a police negotiator who travels to Bangkok to search for his teenage daughter and is aided by local detectives played by Tony Jaa (Skin Trade) and Wu Yue (Journey to the West).
Paradox also stars Gordon Lam (Trivisa), Ken Lo (The Godfather’s Daughter Mafia Blues), Hanna Chan, Stephy Tang (Let’s Go!), Chris Collins and features action choreography by Hong Kong film legend, Sammo Hung (The Bodyguard).
Overseas, Paradox was marketed as part of the SPL/Sha Po Lang crime franchise (or Kill Zone in the U.S., full explanation here), but like SPL 2 to SPL, it should be noted that Paradox is unrelated, story-wise.
Order Paradox from Amazon.com today!
Frankly I’d be surprised if Angelababy appeared in a B-list action film with Iko Uwais and Tony Jaa. This seems like a case of a producer slapping on a name on a project to make it more high-profile. We’ll see I guess.
As for Fate, it sounds very exciting! I just hope it’s not just someone who stumbled on one of those early SPL 2 announcement that still mentioned Sammo Hung as part of the project and forgot to read the date. We’ll see too ^^.
Hope it does too, but it doesn’t seem to fit something Iko Uwais would do (not that I personally know the guy). But then again, he is doing a sequel to the Sci Fi flick, so never mind. 🙂
NICE. It’s got an 80’s Hong Kong look to it.
This exactly the same trailer, just with a release date added ^^.
Thanks. Will edit.
I was gonna say the same thing lol.
Thanks for the heads up.
Looks cool!
Looks like a blast! I’m really excited to see Paradox and Triple Threat.
Looks cool! This is turning into the Tiger Cage of the Aughts.
Will CoF do a giveaway for this?
Excellent film, just saw the HK Blu ray. One of the best HK style martial arts movies in a long time.
Man I wish I had known this was coming before buying the DVD from Malaysia. Although it’s kind of cool to own a Malaysian DVD.
Good movie. Although SPL II still remains my favorite of the series. But Paradox is good also. 😛
