Following closely in the wake of the U.K theatrical release of John Woo's “Red Cliff,” Daniel Lee’s movie version of Guanzhong Luo's 600-year-old Chinese classic novel 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' is out on R2 DVD next month. They threw everything plus the kitchen sink at this production, with an absolute avalanche of action stars including (deep breathe) Andy Lau, Sammo Hung, Maggie Q, Vanessa Wu, Andy On, Rongguang Yu, Quanxin Pu, Lung Ti, Hua Yueh, Chen Zhi Hui and Damian Lau. Unlike Woo’s more recent version, Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon takes far greater liberties with its source material, playing heavy on the action and light on historical accuracy. So, if sword wielding epic-type-ness is more your cup of Joe than dramatical excess, then this is the one for you. Three Kingdoms gets released on DVD and Blu-ray in the U.K, July 13th.
