After a rough run in China, The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Gallants is smashing records in Thailand!
Directed by Tsui Hark and starring the ever-popular Xiao Zhan, the film struggled in its home country, barely scraping by at fourth or fifth place.
Fans weren’t happy with the story changes, and let’s not even talk about the backlash against Zhuang Dafei’s portrayal of Huang Rong.
