ComingSoon is excited to debut a Heroes Shed No Tears clip for the classic John Woo movie, which is being digitally restored for its North American streaming premiere.
The 1986 action movie will stream exclusively on Film Movement Plus starting June 7, 2024. Following a series of low-budget films, Woo considers Heroes Shed No Tears his “first real film.” It set the director‘s over-the-top style that his films would follow in the years to come. The new digital release sports a 2K digital restoration.
“Hong Kong action veteran Eddie Ko (The Mission, Lethal Weapon 4) stars as soldier-of-fortune Chan Chung, the leader of an elite Chinese commando force enlisted by the Thai government to capture General Samton, a powerful drug lord from the Golden Triangle,” reads the synopsis. “After a successful raid on the general’s headquarters, the mercenaries cross into Vietnam and encounter a barbaric colonel (Lam Ching Ying), who is determined to stop them at any cost. Now pursued by both Samton’s henchmen and the colonel’s troops, the heroes flee for the border of Thailand, outmanned and outgunned by their enemies.”
