YesAsia Editorial Description
One of the best period kung-fu actioners Hong Kong has to offer, Iron Monkey is produced by Tsui Hark and helmed by renowned filmmaker and action director Yuen Woo Ping (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon). Action greats Donnie Yen (SPL) and Yu Rong Guang (My Father is a Hero) team up and face off in blistering martial arts set pieces. Set in the late 19th-century Canton folklore era of patriotic heroes, evil oppressors, and chest-thumping righteous action, Iron Monkey revolves around the heroic struggles of a patriotic vigilante, folk hero Wong Kei Ying, and his even more famous son Wong Fei Hung, here still an adolescent and played by actress Angie Tsang.
Soft-spoken doctor by day, vigilante Iron Monkey by night, physician Yang (Yu Rong Guang) has the local Qing government up in arms with his Robin Hood-like heroic exploits against the town's corrupt overlords. With the authorities randomly dragging people off the streets on fabricated suspicions, Wong Kei Ying (Donnie Yen) and his son Fei Hung (Angie Tsang), who just rolled into town, are quickly arrested when they display their martial arts prowess. The unscrupulous magistrate holds Fei Hung hostage, and orders Wong Kei Ying to capture Iron Monkey in exchange for his son.

Young Wong Fei Hong favorite
| I have a Taiseng release of this DVD which predates the US release & has a more original looking cover to it. This is definately a classic one & I wish Tsui Hark would have made more like this. Donnie Yen & Yu Rong Gwong are awesome to watch. Unfortunate there are speeded up fight scenes but it doesn't take away from the beauty of the postures the martial artists have to offer. Excellent story from start to finish giving appropriate pacing & time to bond with practically every character. |

A Masterpiece!
|
Some people tend to look upon Iron Monkey as just a prequel to Once Upon a Time in China, but it's a classic all it's own. Quentin Tarantino released this film in the U.S. (with a great new soundtrack!), which is available on the Region 1 DVD by Miramax. The action choreography and masterful direction by Yuen Woo-Ping is what makes this film unbeatable, Woo-Ping made this film alot less serious than the counterparts starring Jet Li, nonetheless it holds it's own and is always in any Kung Fu fans top ten. Donnie Yen gives this film such a speed and authenticity to his fights, it's amazing! Yu Rongguang who plays the iron monkey is also a talented martial artist who isn't as well known, but probably the most amazing performance is by Sze-Man Tsang who plays the young Wong Fei Hung and in reality is a female award winning martial artist! The great direction of Yuen Woo-Ping combinded with the HK talent makes for one of the greatest martial arts films of them all! |

best film ever!!!!!!!!!!!!
| When i first watched this film i thought wow!!! the martial arts was brilliant right at the start when Leung Ka Yan was thrashing the 4 fake monks. In this film, they have combined comedy with action. Not only their lines were hilarious, but also their moves, especially Donnie Yen at the start. I especially like the kid. He was not strong but tactical. |
