The Age of Commercialism

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

In China, the history teacher and violinist Jian-Wa Chang (Russell Wong) is a quiet man that lives with his father and his younger brother Wago Chang (Chi Muoi Lo), who is a college student and political activist with his girlfriend Lili (Vivian Wu). One day, Wago gets in trouble during a protest and Jian-Wa is forced to help him against the government army. They need to flee from China and they head to the United States. They are stowaways in a fishing vessel but they are arrested by the police and meet the Vietnamese gangster Fu Qua Johnson (Marcus S. Chong) in the cell. Jian-Wa and Wago get political asylum and are released from jail; however the job promised by Fu Qua is for gangster in his gang. Jian-Wa seeks for a honest job despite the difficulties, but Wago prefers to join the Vietnamese gang becoming a prominent gangster. Meanwhile Jian-Wa meets the musician Clair Armstrong (Rebecca Gayheart) and they fall in love with each other. But the blood ties of Jian-Wa with Wago are strong and he feels that his brother needs his support."Vanishing Son" is an unknown little gem with the saga of two Chinese brother separated by their mettles but connected by their blood ties in America. The story is engaging and full of action and romance, with great performances of Russell Wong, Chi Muoi Lo and the lovely Rebecca Gayheart. This film was surprisingly released only in video in Brazil in the 90's and even watching for the second time eighteen years later, it is still wonderful. My vote is eight.Title (Brazil): "Dragões de Sangue" ("Blood Dragons")Note: On 01 April 1999, my vote was nine.

I was an extra in this made for TV movie and I am wondering where I can find a copy of this? I was only 12 or 13 at the time, now I'm 26!!! This was my first acting experience! I am in a scene walking out of a cemetery. Where do I get a copy, I would love to see this. Apparently I need to have a full time lines of text in order to post this, I really am just looking for someone to respond on where I can find this movie. From what I remember about this movie, when I was an extra 16 years ago, is that Rebecca Gayheart was absolutely beautiful, back then she was know as the "noxema girl" I also knew her from my beloved Beverly Hills 90210 where she was Dylan's love interest for a few episodes. When I was the 12 year old extra in the movie, I was too nervous to ask for her autograph because I thought she might laugh at me. The next day my dad ran into her at our Norfolk International Airport and knowing I was too shy the day before to ask, he got her autograph and told her the story how I met her the day before and was too shy to talk to her. She gave my dad an autograph for me and then a few days later I saw her on a talk show and she made a shout out to her little sister, Rachel. I was so excited, because that of course is my name too!!! Where do I find the movie?Does anyone know?!!!!

I have been looking for this movie since I saw it round about 1995... I can't believe it I found it!!! :D I can remember it so well, because I thought the story was really chilling, great fighting scenes and a very sexy love story (not corny at all) for the girls. *swoons* Russel Wong was amazing in this role, the story line was great... Alright when I saw it I was only 11 years old, so I might have higher expectations than I should have. It is unimaginable to me that I wouldn't like it. I fell in love with this movie when I first watched it, the music, the scenery and it's style. Not one boring minute.Find it and buy it!!! NOW!

There have been many TV shows based on martial arts action. Most, if not all, do not last. As a kung fu enthusiast I loved Vanishing Son 1,2 & 3. Good story with some killer kung fu with no CG or obvious camera tricks. Too bad it is inrcedibly hard to find. I have it on tape, thank the Lord for that! It was a nice platform for the Noxema Girl,Rebecca Gayhart, to make a nice leap into acting.Russel Wong has been around for a while and took another stab at martial arts TV with the short lived "Black Sash." Needless to say it was terrible. Also, Marcus Chong AKA Tank from the first Matrix was a big part of Vanishing son also...
