Story: Making his debut as a big-screen director and leading man, RZA-alongside a stellar international cast led by Russell Crowe and Lucy Liu-tells the epic story of warriors, assassins and a lone outsider hero in nineteenth-century China who must unite to destroy the clan traitor who would destroy them all. Since his arrival in China's Jungle Village, the town's blacksmith (RZA) has been forced by radical tribal factions to create elaborate tools of destruction. When the clans' brewing war boils over, the stranger channels an ancient energy to transform himself into a human weapon. As he fights alongside iconic heroes and against soulless villains, one man must harness this power to become savior of his adopted people
Likes : This film wasn't to bad could of been better for what it was but the fight scenes & concept of the film was good.You could tell that this was a Quentin tarantino style film with RZA storyline with the blood & fighting in this film like so many other films he done there has been a lot of blood scenes used in he's films.The concept story was like an old Chinese martial arts film where a nation is govern by a empire & a town called judge town govern by sevial clans that seem to be at war with each other. Long with its good fight scene its not a bad film to watch, filmed in a beautiful way that bring the old style of martial arts into his movie. RZA plays the black smith aka the man with iron fists, he's acting skill is not bad from a singer to actor playing this role he plays a former slave set free that was raise by monks & taught the way of spiritual martial arts & the power of chi, once mastered a man can accomplish anything,he also has a love interest Lady Silk played by the beautiful Jamie Chung who plays this lady's of leisure in the purle house run by the Madam Blossom aka black widow played by the beautiful Lucy Liu i found her character to be very sexual & famine to pleasure the men that came to the house but if any one hurt the girls you would see a different side to her which you could see she was a fighter underneath.Rick Yune plays zen yi aka the blade, he character was on a revenge path for the death of his father at the hand of the Silver Lion played by Byron Mann who was very ruthless in the pursuit of gold,Daniel Wu plays an assissin poison dagger he's character you dont real see much of him or what he looks like until the end of the film but you could tell that he was an evil person.The other lion clan Cung Le played Bronze Lion , Kuan Tai Chen plays Gold Lion, Telly Liu plays Iron Lion & Yoyao Hsueh plays Copper Lion (as Xue Jing Yao). Chia Hui Liu plays Abbott (as Gordon Liu) who teaches rza character the way of chi, Russell Crowe plays jack kinfe seeing him in this role he has seriously put weight on,he was this big in gladiator but he character seem to be on a revenge trail for something but he a close general to the emperor who has this way with woman to pleasue 4 at the same time. Dave Bautista plays Brass Body a character that seem to have this supernatural abilaity to change he's body at will in to soild bass the fight scene with him & iron fist wasnt to bad at the end of the film.This film isnt to bad to watch but it could of been better.
Overall : not bad to watch,had some good fights,very bloody violence & some good looking woman
Rating: 3.5 out 5 for entertainment / 7 out of 10 for fight scenes & concept theme
