This is an interesting film. There is a really good, solid plot behind this film, but not a ton of action. The last 30 minutes of the film have some standout moments, but I was hoping for a little more from the combo of Jet Li and the kid from New Legend of Shaolin, Tze Mui. Not only that, Iron Monkey himself, Yu Rong-Guang, is the bad guy. I had high hopes for this film action wise and was left feeling a little empty there, but came away with something because of the story.
(7.75/10)
