The Kid with the Golden Arm
ActionAdventureDrama86 min
A group of escort guards prepares to move a shipment of government gold to a famine-stricken area, turning a relief mission into a fight over who controls the convoy. Chien Sun and Meng Lo are among the many martial artists circling the shipment, and the film keeps widening its field to take in rival fighters, hired muscle, and the men sworn to protect the gold. One of the rare Venom-team films to gather all six core performers in the same story, it builds its action around a large ensemble, with the tension always tied to the gold and the dangerous route ahead.
