Directed by Sammo Hung • 1989 • Hong Kong
Starring Sammo Hung, Max Mok Siu-chung, Lau Kar-leung
Rascally pedicab driver Lo Tung (Sammo Hung) yearns for the lovely Ping (Nina Li Chi)—but a dangerous gang boss also has eyes for her. When two of his friends are killed by the gangster’s men, Lo must use his incredible fighting talent to avenge them. Over the course of a legendary career, Sammo Hung has been the creative force behind many of Hong Kong cinema’s most incredible action sequences, and PEDICAB DRIVER features some of the director/star’s most spectacular acrobatics and choreography, including a show-stopping stick fight with Shaw Brothers master Lau Kar-leung and an incredible final duel against kickboxing champion Billy Chow.
