Shanghai is the title due for release September 4. Here's the plot summary from IMDB:

An American man returns to a corrupt, Japanese-occupied Shanghai four months before Pearl Harbor and discovers his friend has been killed. While he unravels the mysteries of the death, he falls in love and discovers a much larger secret that his own government is hiding.

OOOOOOOO! John Cusack, Ken Watanabe, and Chow Yun-Fat in a pre-war spy thriller. I am soooo going to see this in the theater! Thx for bringing this to our attention!

WOW! Chow Yun-Fat is THE MAN! Added cool points for the period wardrobe. Too bad it looks like another Western film with the "round eye" teaching those bad "Orientals" a lesson.
