''Iceman'', formerly known as ''The Iceman Cometh'', is a 2014 Hong Kong-Chinese 3D martial arts action-comedy film directed by Law Wing-cheung and starring Donnie Yen, who also serves as the film's action director. The film is a remake of the 1989 film ''The Iceman Cometh'' which was directed by Clarence Fok and starred Yuen Biao, who was earlier reported to join the film. Donnie Yen hand-picked Jam Hsiao for his unique voice and deep emotions to sing the Mandarin theme song. The Cantonese version is sung by Hong Kong singer and actor Julian Cheung. The film was released in Hong Kong and China on April 25, 2014. The sequel is slated for release in 2015. ==Plot== ''Iceman'' revolves around a Ming Dynasty officer, He Ying (Donnie Yen), who was tasked with bringing a mythical time traveling device back to the Ming emperor. He was betrayed, and subsequently frozen. He Ying, Sao(Wang Baoqiang) and Niehu were frozen during a fight and were defrosted in modern-day Hong Kong where they continue their battle. He Ying, Sao (Wang Baoqiang),and Niehu (Yu Kang) are being transported in cryo-stasis pods when an unforeseen accident sets them free. The three of them escape into the city to fulfill their tasks. Niehu and Sao are dead set on exacting revenge on He Ying, despite not understanding the new world they have woken up in. He Ying soon befriends May (Huang Shengyi), who takes advantage of He's confusion about the modern world by charging him extraordinary amounts of money for rent, food, and so on. Niehu and Sao unknowingly helps two Indian mobsters escape the police, and as a result joins the Indian mafia. All the while, it is slowly revealed that Cheung (Simon Yam) is the one who is looking for the trio, but in particular He Ying. Through various flashbacks, it is revealed that all 4 of them were blood brothers who fought side by side, before He Ying was betrayed and charged with treason. After several encounters in the modern world including meeting May's mother, fleeing custody of the police (using his master martial arts skills), and the use of technology, He Ying starts to figure out who is ultimately hunting him down. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Iceman (2014 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
