Product Information
With YEAR OF THE DRAGON (based on the novel by Robert Daley) Michael Cimino has created a captivating, fast-paced action thriller set in New York's Chinatown. The film stars Mickey Rourke as Polish-American cop Stanley White, who wants to keep Chinatown safe for the local consumers and dismantle its deep-rooted tradition in crime. A Vietnam veteran still haunted by his experiences in the Southeast, he is a relentless police captain who has no patience for the elaborate gang violence and the vicious Chinatown crime czar he has vowed to bring down. Excellent performances from Rourke and supporting actor John Lone keep the action moving through the mean streets and lessons in Chinese history.Product Identifiers

Action packed
If you like movies about Triads or Mob movies this is a great flick for you. The story is well written and doesn't insult your intelligence like a lot of movies do. Lots of action also but since its an older movie it really has no "special effects" to speak of. The acting is great as are the characters and who was picked to play them. If this movie was made in black and white it would be in the Noir class of movie. Very hard boiled characters in many of the parts make it gritty also. Just a great movie. Very hard to find since its out of print. Then if you do find one they usually want over 20 bucks. I got extremely lucky and found a used one very cheap. This movie is NEVER played on TV or cable eitherVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

I lived in San Francisco's Chinatown 20 years, and this movie is about New York's Chinatown, so I would naturally be interested.. The story of cops versus gangs is a good one. Mickey Rourke must fight corruption in the NYPD as well as Chinese gangs. His wife is killed by gangsters. He has lover who is a Chinese TV reporter. Ariane Koizumi is actually Japanese.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great movie!
Saw this movie in the theater and liked it. Something reminded me of it a few days ago; therefore, I purchased this used copy. Enjoyed it much more this time around. Some language is politically incorrect for today, but so what.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
