The IMAX release of The Adventurers will be digitally re-mastered into the image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience® with proprietary IMAX DMR® (Digital Re-mastering) technology. The crystal- clear images, coupled with IMAX's customized theatre geometry and powerful digital audio, create a unique environment that will make audiences feel as if they are in the movie.

About The Adventurers

Upon being released from prison, the notorious thief Cheung Tan (Andy Lau) plots a heist with his partners Xiao Bao (Yo Yang) and Ye Hong (Shu Qi) to steal precious gems in Europe.

While Cheung and his posse plan the theft, French detective Pierre (Jean Reno) remains hot on their trail. Pierre, who has been following Cheung's move for many years, has no margin for error in capturing the crew. What follows is a high-octane race featuring big explosions and deceit.
