    New International Trailer for MAN OF TAI CHI Starring Keanu Reeves. Woah.

    It's been too long since Johnny Utah used martial arts to kick the shit out of dudes for our viewing pleasure and money. 

    Well, Universal has decided we've had enough waiting and released this new international trailer for Man of Tai Chi, and while Keanu Reeves takes a back-seat in this to play a "Mortal Kombat" version of Jigsaw from the SAW franchise, it still might be pretty cool. Reeves also makes his directorial debut with this film, so who knows, maybe we'll see more of him?

    In the midst of Beijing’s urban bustle, ambitious young ‘Tiger’ Chen Lin-Hu (Tiger Chen) works as a lowly courier; but after work, he is a young martial arts star, rising through the ranks representing the Ling Kong Tai Chi tradition.

    He has crafted the stealthy, peaceful movements of Tai Chi and sculpted them to suit martial arts’ competitive fighting world. Jumping to another central city of pandemonium and chaos, Donaka Mark (Keanu Reeves) is evading the police in Hong Kong while running an underground fight club where cold hard cash is made by defeating one’s opponent in a no-holds barred fight privately broadcast to wealthy patrons.

    Looking for a new ‘star’, Donaka tries to lure Tiger with the promise of easy money. Entrance into this world brings out the darkest side of Chen Lin-Hu, but he needs the cash. His skill saves him in the ring but can he fight and maintain his integrity and good nature?
