Unleashed

地下拳

Limited seating

This classic comic book-style fight yarn hits all its targets, both dramatically as well as in combat, with dazzling aplomb. Its undaunted hero is a martial artist who teaches at an underdog gym by day and is an underground fighter by night. A romantic interest appears in the form of a lovely young ingenue who needs fight lessons for the screen. Then corruption rears its ugly head threatening all the good guys and inciting a suspenseful slam-bang final conflict. Pop that popcorn and strap in for an action-packed ride on this hyperbolic day-glo entry in the irrepressible modern melee genre.
