As you all know, I’m a massive fan of Max Zhang and believe he’s doing the lord’s work as of late with not one, not two but three martial arts films on the horizon. And that’s after last year’s superb The Brink. This is the latest poster for the most quiet of his projects, Assassins and the Missing Gold (It has to get a re-titling, right?). Jeff Lau’s directing and he’s not really know for kung fu films. Then again, he’s directing two this year. The biggest worry comes from Xiong Xin Xin handling the choreography. The dude has done magic in the past but seems to be in a bit of a slump as of late. He recently choreographed the poorly received “Lady Bloodfight”. I have faith in Max Zhang though. He’s delivered thus far and if he keeps going down this path, I genuinely think he’s going to give Donnie Yen a run for his money.
