3 Trailers from Twitch
It’s Twitch round-up time. Supporting martial artists Mike B. and Russell Wong take the lead kneeing and kicking people in the chest in Thanapon Maliwan’s The Sanctuary. Lee Byung-Hun, Kimura Takuya and Josh Hartnett go to Hong Kong and walk the line between the police and organized crime in Tran Anh Hung’s I Come with the Rain. Matsuyama Kenichi show his ninjitsu in Sai Yoichi’s live-action adaptation of Kamui. (What the hell, here’s another trailer for Johnnie To’s Vengeance).
