    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The story "Made in Chinatown" was in part inspired by writer Mark V. Wiley's love of elements in four films: The Pope of Greenwich Village (1984), Big Trouble in Little China (1986), The Freshman (1990), and Kiss Me, Guido (1997). This was merged with his obsession with the Shaw Bros. classic '80s kung-fu flicks, featuring Meng Lo and Feng Lu.

    Great Mob / Kung-fu Rom-com mashup comedy!

    Made in Chinatown is surprisingly good. You would think its a mob film with kung-fu, but it is so much more!! One could say it is a love story or a story of coming to terms with being an outsider. It tackles these themes while spoofing the mob and kung-fu film genres. And they got classic genre actors to do it. The surprise is how good Jay Kwon in as the lead (Vinny Chow), and amazing talent of "Lawrence" the gay black actor who is really a karate master, and the amazing Raymond Barry digging deep into his theater and film roles to pull of the silliest of lines with the straightest of face. Made in Chinatown is a fun romp that leaves you with a full heart at its conclusion.
