First created by Shigeno Shuichi in comic form in 1996,
and then adapted into a smash hit anime, Initial D has finally been adapted
into a live-action motion picture - and it's now available on DVD!
Directed by Andrew Lau and Alan Mak (the Infernal Affairs trilogy), the film
stars Jay Chou as an 18-year old boy who awakens to the thrill of illegal
street racing. Popular Hong Kong actors Edison Chen, Shawn Yue, and Jordan
Chan co-star as fellow street racers, and multiple Best Actor award winner
Anthony Wong and singer Kenny Bee shore up the cast. Initial D opened in June
in Hong Kong to instant blockbuster status, grossing over HK$37 million in
just 4 weeks time to become the 2005's top-grossing movie thus far.
Taiwanese pop icon Jay Chou makes his acting debut as Takumi Fuijiwara, a
high-school kid who delivers tofu every morning for his father Bunta (Anthony
Wong). During his daily delivery, Takumi unknowingly sharpens up his racing
skills by speeding through notorious racing spot Mt. Akina, where some of
Japan's greatest street racers venture for glory. After Takumi accidentally
bests Night Kids leader Takeshi Nakazato (Shawn Yue) on Akina's downhill,
he begins to attract the attention of other street racers. But Takumi is more
than just another wannabe racer.
Years of delivering tofu in his father's Toyota AE86 Trueno have made him
an incredibly skilled driver, and not even Takumi really knows just how good
he is! With breathtaking car-racing scenes, a hip soundtrack, and an all-star
cast, Initial D is the Hong Kong Cinema blockbuster fans have been waiting
for!
