Year of the Dragon (1985) Year of the Dragon

Year of the Dragon ★★½ 1985 (R) Polish police Captain Stanley White of the NYPD vows to neutralize the crime lords running New York's Chinatown. Brilliant cinematography, well-done action scenes with maximum violence, a racist hero you don't want to root for, murky script, and semi-effective direction are the highlights of this tour through the black market's underbelly and hierarchy. Based on Robert Daley's novel. 136m/C VHS. Jack Kehler, Mickey Rourke, John Lone, Ariane, Leonard Termo, Raymond J. Barry; Director: Michael Cimino; Writer: Oliver Stone, Michael Cimino.
