The first of Tsui Hark’s renowned epic series of films, Once Upon a Time in China is the film that defined Jet Li as an action superstar destined for the international stage, with his portrayal of the legendary Chinese folk hero Wong Fei Hung. Set in late 19th century China, the increasing Western presence in the area begins to escalate hostilities between Chinese and Western forces. Under the request of the Black Flag Army, martial artist Wong Fei Hung begins to recruit and train a militia of kung fu warriors to help protect the town. Meanwhile, Leung Fun (Yuen Biao) and his master Yim (Yen Shi Kwan), begin to collude with the infamous local gang Sha Ho to oppose Wong and his militia. In order to execute their plans, the Sha Ho and Yim assist Western forces in a dastardly plot of their own, forcing Wong and Leung Fu to confront the realities of a Western presence in Asia.

Asian action hero Jet Li returns as kung fu master Wong Fei Hung in this sequel to the box office hit Once Upon a Time in China.

While attending a medical convention, Wong Fei Hung befriends the like minded, Dr. Sun Yat Sen (Zhang Tie Lin), a Chinese revolutionary rebel fighting\ for China to become a Republic. Impeding the rebel cause is General Lan (Donnie Yen), an official of the Imperial government, which opposes Sun’s ideas of revolution. Making matters worse are the frequent attacks by the White Lotus Society, an extreme nationalist cult intent on removing Western influences in China by any means necessary.

When the government begins to collude with the White Lotus Society to threaten the rebel cause, Wong must once again rise as the champion of the people, and fight the imposing threat on Dr. Sun’s revolution.

The story of martial arts folk hero Wong Fei Hung continues, as Jet Li reprises his role for the third film in the epic Once Upon a Time in China series.

Visiting his father in Beijing, just as the Empress calls for a national King Lion Competition, Wong Fei Hung finds a rival in Leung Fun (Max Mok) and his formidable fighter, Club Foot (Xiong Xin Xin ), who had previously attacked his father. Meanwhile, Wong also faces a possible romantic rival for Aunt Yee’s (Rosamund Kwan) affection in a Russian diplomat whom she knew back in school. However when a plot to assassinate the Governor at the lion dance competition is uncovered by Aunt Yee, Wong must now enter the competition and use his skill to save the Governor and defeat Leung Fun.

Venturing over from China to America in search of his old kung fu master, Uncle Tak (Yuen Wah), Jet (Jet Li) arrives in San Francisco to find his master’s herbal medicine shop Po Chi Lam destroyed.

Jonny is intent on claiming supremacy as the best kung fu master in San Fransisco. Eventually tracking his down his master, Jet is soon targeted by Jonny and his thugs, culminating in a fight that will determine who really is The Master.
