I read a review of this before watching it that only gave it around 5 stars out of 10. The critic complained that the plot development was too diluted because there was too much going on in this 2 hour, action-packed, stylistic, cinematic homage to Kung-fu movies from the 1970's. I agree that the story was highly busy but...given all the pro's mentioned above...any fan of old Kung-fu films would enjoy this movie and I would highly anticipate sequels to this film where the story lines and character developments are more focused.

RZA or whoever he was had his pal Q Tarantino add his name on the package just to sell more of them to suckers like myself. The movie was worth the $4 I paid for it, though $3 would have been more fair. It was quite violent but if I had known Q Tarantino only had his name on the package out of friendship, I would have passed on it.

The movie was good, storyline was fine. Thought it would have been a bit better though.

Man With the Iron Fists explodes with style, personality and visual splendor. This may not feature the strongest execution of action sequences (see John Hyam's Universal Soldier: Regeneration and Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning, Raid 2, and The Girl from the Naked Eye for that) but the action is solid, the Cory Yuen choreography is tight as ever but Rza isn't focusing on the "flow" of the action but the "explosions". Huge action beats within these sequences take center stage and the editing heightens the impact. The real reason to see Iron Fists is for how visually striking the movie is and the unique "voice" Rza gives the picture with melding myth (the world building is layered and fun, such as giving each character a unique weapon), modern music (The Black Keys and Rza's "The Baddest Man Alive" is the highlight), and interesting characters (Particularly Crowe's Jack Knife and Yune's X Blade). I wouldn't necessarily recommend this to a martial arts fan, none the less, Iron Fists is a fun, fresh and visually striking movie.

The man with the iron fists is a movie directed by the rapper RZA, it's a marital arts type of movie, just with a lot more blood, it's a super violent movie. If you go in with very low expectations and know not to take anything of it seriously, you'll have fun. But if you want something serious avoid it.
