YesAsia Editorial Description

Directed by Taiwanese director Chen Yi Wen (The Cabbie), time-travel action fantasy Tripping is a fabulous fusion of genres, with the most unlikely of casts. This 2006 Taiwan-Japan co-production recalls the trippy Hong Kong films of the 1980s with its motley assortment of Taoist priests, jumping vampires, and evil sorcery, but there's nothing throwback about the perfectly contemporary casting of Taiwanese actor Wilson Chen (Blue Gate Crossing) and Japanese starlet Tanaka Rena (Gegege no Kitaro). Despite the language barrier, Chen and Tanaka, who would go on to star in Waiting in the Dark together, share a believable chemistry that carries both the film's light and sentimental moments. Tripping also co-stars esteemed veteran actor Osugi Ren, Shaw Brothers actor Wu Ma, and Sammo Hung's son Jimmy Hung, a member of the Taiwanese boy band Tension. Packed with action, drama, and comedy, Tripping keeps a brisk pace and plucky face with a story that is at times serious, at times silly, but always oddly entertaining.

Rebellious Japanese-Taiwanese girl Xiao Die (Tanaka Rena) often clashes with her father, who runs a traditional medicine shop in Taiwan. One night while she's exploring an old movie set, she accidentally gets transported back to ancient times. Lost and confused, Xiao Die ends up tagging along with a Taoist priest and his two disciples-of-convenience (Wilson Chen and Jimmy Hung), thieves who are on the run from the authorities. Initially, Xiao Die just wants to go home, but she soon develops an affinity with her fellow travelers. On the road, the unlikely group of four encounters numerous dangers, stumbling upon a conspiracy involving a powerhungry sorcerer and the corrupt court.
