Editor's Note
Hong Kong actor/director Stephen Fung (GEN-X COPS, ENTER THE PHOENIX) and legendary action choreographer Woo Ping Yuen (KUNG FU HUSTLE, KILL BILL, THE MATRIX, CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON) team up for the martial-arts comedy HOUSE OF FURY. Teddy (Anthony Wong) is a middle-aged ex-secret-agent living as a widowed chiropractor raising two difficult teenagers, Nicky (director Fung) and Natalie (pop star Gillian Chung). The teens find it difficult to believe that their sedate father was once a James Bond-like spy until the day a vengeful foe from Teddy's past arrives on the scene seeking revenge, leading the family on a zany adventure brimming with high-flying martial-arts action.
