Plunged into despair thanks to his failing marriage to moody journalist Pang (Beibi Gong) and the pressure he is under from his bosses to lie for the sake of the company he works for, prosthetic engineer Li (Wu) contemplates suicide as a means of escaping his daily woes. However, before he can tie the noose around his neck, in walks his American neighbour and soon-to-be life mentor Chuck (Spacey).

Bloody historical epic about court intrigue in China's Five Dynasties period, loosely based on Shakespeare's 'Hamlet'. The setting is an ancient Chinese kingdom, where malice and treachery rule. The latest turmoil arises with the sudden death of the emperor. Suspicion falls on his ambitious brother Li (You Ge), who takes the throne as well as his brother's young, beautiful wife, Empress Wan (Ziyi Zhang). The only obstacle in his path is his brother's son, Prince Wuluan (Daniel Wu), a melancholy youngster who harbours a sexual longing for his stepmother and has consequently exiled himself to a colony in the wilderness. When the new emperor's ninja assassins reach the colony the prince barely escapes with his life. Returning to the palace, he is at once embroiled in schemes, counterschemes and suspect declarations of love. The film climaxes at a late night banquet where murder is the main dish on the menu...

Two brothers, Gang (Liu Ye) and Hu (Tony Yang), and their best friend Feng (Daniel Wu) - self-proclaimed 'blood brothers' - leave the village where they grew up to pursue their dream of making it big in the city's underworld. Their close bond is severely tested as they rise up through the ranks and greed, power and ambition take their toll. Qi Shu co-stars as sultry cabaret singer and gangster's moll Lulu.

Presuming that the map will lead them to treasure, the boys set out on an adventure in the hope of finding wealth and happiness. They are pursued by Spring (Charlene Choi) and Blue Bird (Gillian Chung), two beautiful female warriors with secret intentions, and quickly discover that the map has led them into danger. Will the boys be able to fight their way to the bottom of the riddle - and past rivals as formidable as the Lord of Armour (Jackie Chan) - to fulfil their destiny?
