Synopsis
The Heroic Trio (東方三俠, 1993) is a Hong Kong fantasy-action film you can watch online on iFILM. Johnnie To directs, and the screen belongs to three icons at once: Anita Mui, Michelle Yeoh and Maggie Cheung.
Babies are vanishing across the city — eighteen of them — and the police have nothing. A woman in an invisibility cloak is snatching them for a sinister master who rules from below. Inspector Lau pins his hopes on a masked vigilante; beside her stand a mercenary on a motorcycle and a third warrior with old debts to settle. Each woman carries a secret power and a private grief, and one by one they line up against the same evil.
To shot this at the wildest stretch of Hong Kong action cinema — wirework, gunfights, gothic dread and comic-book color all crammed together. Today it plays like a time capsule, and as a rare night when three legends of Asian film share one frame. Stream The Heroic Trio (1993) online on iFILM.
