Synopsis

In warlord-dominated China of the 1920s, notorious bandit Zhang descends upon a remote town posing as its new mayor, an identity he has hijacked from the former mayor, himself a small-time imposter. Hell-bent on making a fast buck, Zhang soon meets his match in the tyrannical local thug Wang.

MUBI's take

Once the darling of the art-film world, Jiang Wen set the local box office ablaze with this rip-roaring action spectacular. With a star-studded cast headlined by Chow Yun Fat, Let the Bullets Fly takes to the boondocks of 1920s China for a gleefully madcap, elaborately political genre mash-up.
