Synopsis :
Ming Ming is a 21st century matial arts princess and lady Robin Hood who steals for love. Her Prince Charming is D, a maverick fighter and irresistible rogue who posted his challenge to his swarms of female admirers – give him 5 million dollars and he’ll run away with his benefactress.
Ming Ming loses no time to rob Underworld boss Cat. While fleeing from Cat’s henchmen, Ming Ming runs into Nana. Not only is Nana a virtual look-alike of Ming Ming, she is also one of D’s girlfriends. Ming Ming makes Nana the scapegoat for her theft. However, Ming Ming’s secret admirer Tu mistakes Nana for her, and becomes her guardian angel.
Just as this identity mix-up is taking place, D disappears from Shanghai without a trace. The only clue he leaves behind is a cryptic phone message. The two girls search all four corners of the sprawling city but are left dismayed and disappointed. Even more dejected is Tu, who realizes that he means nothing to his goddess.
As the four lost souls weave in and out of each other’s lives in the maze-like metropolis, the dark forces of Cat are closing in on them.
In 2012, amid economic chaos and high unemployment, Americans by the millions watch criminals with life sentences race armored cars on Terminal Island. Two-thirds of the combatants die but the winner may earn his freedom. On the day he loses his job, steelworker Jensen Ames is arrested for his wife’s murder. Sent to Terminal Island, he’s offered an out by the steely and manipulative Warden Hennessey – race as the popular mask-wearing (but now dead) champion, Frankenstein, or rot in prison. Jensen makes the bargain. As the three-stage race approaches, he realizes that the whole thing may be a set up – can an anonymous man behind a mask get revenge and win his release?
