As the top lieutenants in Conquer's clan, Wind and Cloud have as prophesized aided their master in his evil quest to dominate the world. Ten years later, Wind (Ekin Cheng) has grown into a laidback, kind-hearted swordsman, and Cloud (Aaron Kwok), a cold and silent brooder, both with superior martial arts skills. Acting on a prophecy by the Mud Buddha (Wayne Lai), Conquer hunts down the two boys, kills their parents, and takes them as disciples. Power-hungry overlord Conquer (Sonny Chiba) is out to take over the martial arts world, and his victory depends on two children named Wind and Cloud. The fantastical martial arts spectacle is further supported by a star-studded cast that includes Anthony Wong, Shu Qi, Kristy Yang, Alex Fong Chung Sun, Yu Rong Guang, Lawrence Cheng, Wayne Lai, and Xu Jinglei, making the The Storm Riders a must-see Hong Kong classic that thrills and amazes even a decade later. Ekin Cheng ( Young and Dangerous) and Aaron Kwok ( After This, Our Exile) star as the iconic eponymous heroes, Wind and Cloud, while legendary Japanese actor Sonny Chiba lords over the film as the villainous Conquer.
The Storm Riders boasted the best special effects ever seen in a Hong Kong film at the time, courtesy of pioneering visual effects house Centro which would go on to work on films like Kill Bill and Kung Fu Hustle.
Directed by Andrew Lau ( Infernal Affairs), the big-budget all-star production broke box office records with its fusion of comic book adventure, wuxia mythology, wirework action, and pure cinematic spectacle. Based on Ma Wing Shing's best-selling comic, blockbuster action fantasy The Storm Riders opened a new page in Hong Kong Cinema when it was released in 1998.
