The Man with the Iron Fists review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 12/28/12
RZA may have taken notes from Tarantino, but he is nowhere close to the brilliant aforementioned director. The movie reminded this rater of 300, Kill Bill, and X-men combined, with lack of reasoning and a lousy script reminiscent of bad 80's kung-fu flicks. Loaded with potential characters but suffer due to lack of character development. Casting for the main lead was another flaw since the lack of emotion and better acting was evident. On the positives, action, choreography and music made it albeit watchable. Camera direction and special effects were nicely produced. Crowe sincere in taking on his role, probably had fun with it. The Man with the Iron Fists is an average ultra-violent martial picture that may please action fans, but may disappoint avid movie aficionado's based on the overall output.
