The phrase ‘all time great’ gets thrown around a lot but it’s accurate when talking about Iron Monkey.
Easily accessible in terms of story and pacing for those that want to try a classic martial arts movie, it has incredible action scenes and a pretty decent script. Donnie Yen is a star here and some of the sequences need to be seen to be believed.
Normally with these sorts of movies there are caveats and concessions you have to make such as overlooking poor plotting or things that don’t hold up anymore but Iron Monkey requires none of that. It’s a classic, hugely impressive and iconic and no matter how many years pass this will always be one of the best action films out there.
It’s A great place to start for those looking to get into classic martial arts cinema and of course the Eureka! Blu-Ray has everything you possible want on it as well.
