Liu Jin-xi (Yen) is a village craftsman whose quiet life is irrevocably shattered by the arrival of two notorious gangsters in the local general store. When Liu single-handedly saves the shopkeeper's life, he comes under investigation by detective Xu Bai-jiu (Kaneshiro). Convinced that Liu's martial arts mastery belies a hidden history of training by one of the region's vicious clans, Xu doggedly pursues the shy hero-and draws the attention of China's criminal underworld in the process (c) Weinstein Co.If You Like this movie you can streaming Dragon movie without downloading HERE

New Trailer For Dragon
Review For Dragon
"Dragon" has enough interesting left turns in style, mood and psychodrama to make it stand out.Robert Abele-Los Angeles Times
The movie hurtles along at a pitch of sentiment and melodrama that would make MGM blush, and it's mostly very diverting.
Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post
As a whole, it does not quite work, especially at the end, when Mr. Chan tries for a Shakespearean climax of filial rebellion and paternal rage.
A.O. Scott-New York Times
The widescreen cinematography and mountain rain-forest locations retain their interest, as does the deftly incongruous score, which ranges from samba to hard rock.
Mark Jenkins-NPR
The large canvas and pseudo-superhero tactics work for a bit, but then the action gets sidetracked in place of myth-building.
Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News
A martial-arts morality play as lithe as it is forceful.
Mary Corliss-TIME Magazine
There are good action sequences but it has been ham-fistedly cut for UK distribution.
Derek Malcolm-This is London
Yen again proves one of the few martial artists equally adept with subtler emotional beats.
Mike McCahill-Guardian [UK]
Dragon roars.
Chris Blohm-Little White Lies
Chan's film may be derivative of plenty of other films (most notably David Cronenberg's A History of Violence) but it manages to keep things fresh and exciting.
Rob Carnevale-The List
Full of blistering action sequences worthy of the Shaw Brothers legacy. A treat for martial arts fans.
Owen Williams-Empire Magazine
A superior martial arts film with excellent cinematography and a story to match.
Paul Chambers-Movie Chambers
a mannered mix of detective story, morality tale, family tragedy and Buddhist allegory, all wrapped in virtuoso visuals and some very tricksy action choreography... The story may be familiar, but wuxia has never quite looked like this before.
Anton Bitel-Grolsch Film Works
Peter Ho-Sun Chan's frenetic, high-kicking thriller runs a full 20 minutes shorter than it did at Cannes in 2011 and feels all the better for it.
Neil Smith-Total Film
An exhilarating opening fight scene sets the stage for this otherwise cheesy chop-socky Hong Kong saga.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
Dragon delivers a few swift kicks and a barrage of bone crunching punches to the standard expectations of a remake. Dragon is a stunning display of martial arts action, mesmerizing detective work, and engaging performances.
Chris Sawin-Examiner.com
Gracefully acted, brilliantly shot, and effortlessly combining both character study and superb butt kicking, Wu Xia is an excellent post-modern subgenre gem.
Bill Gibron-PopMatters
Yen's strengths have never been in his expressiveness, and Dragon plods when it centers on dramatic struggles, then leaps exhilaratingly to life whenever the fighting begins.
Alison Willmore-AV Club
A fun collision of "A History of Violence," traditional over-the-top Hong Kong martial arts pictures and sort of a "C.S.I.: Yunnan Province."
Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service
