Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka

This action thriller from Hong Kong begins with Princess Rawleen (Mandy Moore) having to rush back home after her father (the king) dies unexpectedly and cannot finish a major deal with the U.S. Rawleen gets sidetracked when her jet is sabotaged, and she ends up at the mansion of a friend where she is kidnapped. The hero, a CIA agent named Jack Sargeant (Bruce Baron) sets out to find her with the help of the Dragon Force, an international, underground, crime-fighting unit headed by a karate expert (Bruce Li). The hapless Princess cannot become unkidnapped until the heroes have kicked and chopped the competition down to zero, a feat which takes up much of the 100-minute running time.
