About
Three martial artists—notorious in their prime as “the three tigers”—have grown into middle-aged men, one kick from a pulled muscle. But after their teacher’s murder, they must juggle dead-end jobs, dad duties, and old grudges to avenge him.
PG-13 for some strong language, offensive slurs, and violence.
