IncaWelCar In truth, any opportunity to see the film on the big screen is welcome.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

fredroyer For those of you who grew up in the 80s like me, the old time USA channel only had things to show: WWF, and badly dubbed Kung Fu movies produced by the Shaw Brothers.The plot, as it were, is a combination of all of those movies. The movie is hysterical. No one involved is taking themselves seriously (how could they?) and wow, it sure does look like Russell Crowe is having the time of his life.

adonis98-743-186503 The Man with the Iron Fists is a movie starring Russell Crowe, Cung Le, and Lucy Liu. On the hunt for a fabled treasure of gold, a band of warriors, assassins, and a rogue British soldier descend upon a village in feudal China, where a humble blacksmith looks to defend himself and his fellow villagers. The most suprising thing of all from this film must have been seeing Dave Bautista turning into a golden "cousin of Colossus" plus Russell Crowe was pretty good and RZA as well and it's to bad that the sequel that they made a few years later called The Man with the Iron Fists 2 was so laughably bad and over the top because even tho this one is kind of silly it's actually alot of fun.

billcarr31 Russel Crowe was obviously included in this rubbish movie to give some prestige. He should be ashamed of himself as he surely does not need the money! Lucy Liu whom I adore is also misplaced here she is worthy of better. Mercifully she makes only short appearances However to the film it is one of the worst action films I have ever seen in the Chinese martial arts genre. I have watched quite a few and the old ones were very good. and far better than this. The idea of the maimed blacksmith acquiring working hands in the 19th century is also ludicrous.

BA_Harrison Rapper RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan writes, stars in and directs this OTT homage to old-school kung fu flicks, clearly intending to emulate the success of Quentin Tarantino, who lends his name to the film to try and help increase viewer-ship. Unfortunately, RZA is no match for QT, not even in the acting department, and the result is an utterly atrocious, poorly written (horror hack Eli Roth co-wrote the script, so no surprises there), shoddily directed mess, with horrible performances from a surprisingly impressive supporting cast: blaxploitation star Pam Grier looks embarrassed, Lucy Liu is as bad as she was in Charlie's Angels 2, a whole slew of Asian performers seize the opportunity to be in a mainstream Hollywood production but no doubt regret their decision, while Oscar winner Russell Crowe puts in quite possibly the worst performance of his entire career.Even plenty of outrageously bloody violence, courtesy of make-up maestros Greg Nicotero and Howard Berger, and a bevy of hot Asian chicks cannot save this film from being a virtually unwatchable disaster. The plot is a mess of martial arts clichés clumsily thrown together with little regard for pace or narrative cohesion, and the ridiculous action scenes fail to generate a sense of excitement thanks to RZA's lack of experience (or talent) behind the camera and clumsy editing. As penance for this travesty, I suggest that RZA visit a mountain top monastery where he can dedicate the rest of his life to studying the real classics of the genre; in time, he might learn where he went so horribly wrong. At the very least, we would never have to suffer through another RZA movie.2.5 out of 10, generously rounded up to 3 for the gore effects and for sexy Grace Huang as Gemini Female.
