Xanda is the latest film for Tsui Hark as producer. The film concentrates on a kung fu fighter from the countryside named Qiang who goes to the big city, where he learns about the new sport that's sweeping the city. Xanda is a hybrid form of martial arts, varying mainly on kickboxing and grappling. When his friend Lung is seriously injured by the current Xanda champion Wei, Qiang learns to combine his traditional kung fu with Xanda techniques to win the championship.

Watched 'Xanda' with Joe, Eric, Emilio and his friend Lan. Not a bad movie, some good enjoyable fight scenes (not at all realistic, quite Rocky-like). Story is relatively straightforward: Country kungfu kid goes to the big city, wants to become a big money Sanda champion. Boy meets girl, boy knocks up girl, girl
