ln this visually arresting action drama from accIaimed director Johnnie To (Mad Detective, Election), legendary Judo fighter Szeto Bo (Louis Koo; FIash Point, The Legend of Zu) unexpectedIy gave up the sport and now lives the life of an aIcohoIic gambler who runs a pub. However, cocky Judo newcomer Tony (Aaron Kwok) wants to chaIIenge him, while oId foe Kong (Tony Leung Ka Fai, Ashes of Time) demands Szeto to finish the match that never took place, Soon Szeto s pub becomes the uItimate arena where the greatest Judo fighters chalIenge one another.
FiIIed with brutal, no-hoIds-barred Judo fight scenes, Throw Down is director To s uItra-stylish homage to the great Japanese director Akira Kurosawa, and is an emotionaI tale of one man s determination to rediscover himself and win at all costs. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present Throw Down in its UK debut from a 4K restoration.
