I like this movie because of the action sequences.The work of Yuen Woo-Ping combines incredible dynamic,high-flying fight-action and stunning cinematography with a classic story of courage,honor,and sacrifice.I am a fan of Donnie Yen(International action superstar).I have seen this film more than ten times now and it get better each time I saw it.This film had everything;actions,comedy,and drama,but,no sex.The picture quality of this particular DVD is unbelievable!It is clear and colorful.HONG KONG LEGENDS did a great job in digitally restored and remastered.Warning though,check to see whether it is PAL or the right region that your DVD player needs.
Brilliant. Never disappointed by Donnie Yen. A great movie to have in your collection as a Donnie yen fan. No negatives just brilliance.

Iron Monkey is filled to the brim with some of the most inspired fight choreography I've ever seen. There are numerous one-shot scenes that are spectacularly done. Even better, there isn't one or two memorable shots, but dozens. The actors are all accomplished martial artists and this brings legitimacy to the fights, something that is missing in films such as Legend of Zu and The Storm Riders. There are little special effects in Iron Monkey besides the tried and true usage of wire-fu to help the characters fly and bounce and jump. And even that is very well done, showing the sure hands of a wire-fu veterans.The plot is ok and the acting at times is very poor but saying that i really enjoyed this likeable movie.
Excellent action sequence's, and even a slight plot and story line (whatever next ?!). Iron Monkey take steps towards meeting Western style plot-lines whilst still remaiing true to it's Chinese origins. Maybe not one of the Top Ten martial arts films ever made, but certainly high on the list. ENJOY !
I like this movie, main reason would be because I was impressed with the martial arts from donnie yen who I first heard of & saw in action on a movie for the first time. I like the effects and the fact that you can have it in audio english which makes it a lot easier for you to understand. My dad also had this DVD but lost it to one of my cousins months after I missed it & decided to buy it for myself.
