A rollicking, visually inventive action-comedy that gleefully blends martial arts, mythology, and 1980s irreverence into a self-aware adventure romp.

Truck driver Jack Burton gets embroiled in a supernatural battle when his best friend Wang Chi's green-eyed fiancée is kidnapped by henchmen of the sorcerer Lo Pan, who must marry a girl with green eyes in order to return to the human realm.
