The Purifiers is a 2004 action film directed by Richard Jobson, and starring Dominic Monaghan. It was produced by Chris Atkins.

Synopsis

The Purifiers, Les Redresseurs, est un groupe d'experts en arts martiaux ayant la solide réputation d'assurer la paix dans la ville. Déçu des initiatives inadéquates du gouvernement et de sa piètre surveillance policière, Moses, le chef d'un gang rival, tente d'intégrer des résidents dans une association très puissante pouvant contrôler les crimes et le trafic de stupéfiants. Puisque ces agissements vont à l'encontre des valeurs représentées par Les Purifiers, ils se retrouvent seuls dans leur camp. Le succès de la nouvelle alliance repose alors sur un seul critère : éliminer Les Purifiers. Malgré de minces chances de réussite, Les Purifiers s'engagent dans une violente et explosive guerre contre les gangs de rues, mais cette fois, l'enjeu est mortel.

Eddie Yang (Jackie Chan) is a Hong Kong police officer cooperating with Interpol in the capture of a crime lord named AJ "Snakehead" Staul (Julian Sands). Snakehead procures an ancient book from a Chinese bookstore keeper, which tells the story of a boy being chosen every thousand years to bind the two halves of a legendary medallion. In Hong Kong, Eddie and Interpol agent Arthur Watson (Lee Evans) lead a raid to capture Snakehead and his men, who are about to kidnap the boy, named Jai (Alex Bao). Eddie and the agents fight off Snakehead's men, infiltrating the temple containing Jai. Jai is saved but Snakehead eludes them. Two weeks later Snakehead captures Jai aboard a cargo boat in Hong Kong.
