When honor crosses oceans, it meets resistance.
In the sixth and final installment of the legendary series, Wong Fei-hung (Jet Li) travels to the American West to visit a Chinese community. But when heโs struck with amnesia after a bandit ambush, he must rediscover his identity and principlesโwhile caught in a violent showdown between Chinese immigrants, Native tribes, and corrupt lawmen.
A genre-blending mix of classic kung fu and Wild West grit
Jet Li returns in peak formโgraceful, disciplined, and unshakably noble
Themes of identity, racism, justice, and bridging worlds
Directed by Sammo Hung, the film blends brawls and heart with stylized flair
Stagecoach chases, saloon brawls, desert duels, and a final fight that reclaims both memory and honor
โEven in a strange land, justice walks with me.โ
