Iron Monkey - Donnie Yen Hong Kong Kung Fu Martial Arts Action movie DVD dubbed

An herbal doctor becomes a masked hero to the oppressed local population during the Chinese Qing Dynasty and must face an evil Manchu official and his Shaolin monks as well as local officials. Overview: Directed by Yuen Wo Ping (best known as the action director on The Matrix); Iron Monkey features a very straightforward Robin-Hood-type story as the background for fast-paced; wall-to-wall action. The film features some incredibly imaginative choreography and great camera-work making it quite possibly the quintessential wire-work martial arts extravaganza of the 90s. Some of the wire-enhanced acrobatics may look a little fake at times; but it rarely detracts from the stunning; inventive fight scenes that fills the screen. Especially entertaining is the final battle atop a court-full of burning wooden poles! Each one of the main characters are top-notch martial artists; and the film gives them all a chance to show just how good they really are. For pure jaw-dropping; no-holds barred fantasy action; nothing beats Iron Monkey. English dubbed.
