Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

kosmasp While the first Iron Man ... sorry Iron Fist movie had some good actors in it (alongside RZA), this one is even more straight to video/DVD, than that. If there is going to be a third one, I hope they'll go either back to hire some good acting talent and/or someone who's gonna polish the look (action wise and just framing and set design wise too).Whatever you thought about the previous entry, you couldn't fault it for its looks. Russell Crowe seemed a bit nonplussed by it, but at least he was in it. And while I really like Wu Tang and RZA music wise, he really should go back to producing. Or get a great director and just a small role (like he did in Ghost Dog). There really isn't much to save this, watch at your own peril (to waste your time that is)

lemonmerrengue-98430 Plot was a bit weaker than the first. These types of films are not made to win Oscars. The Rza has spoken widely on his, and the Wu-Tang Clan's love of Eastern thought and specifically Kung-Fu films. I think is just another love song to that genre and a reference to milieu that might be a little odd to westerners not familiar with the Asian culture. I think the Rza in his own small way is trying to touch on concepts and loftier concepts , just not being an adept at storytelling, one can see gaps and weaknesses in the arc and theme, but someone attempting this type of film, especially an African-American man from Staten Island, it is an interesting and fulfilling way to spend a couple hours.

richard2806 If you're OK with watching B-grade type movies with weird plot holes and fight scenes where you can often spot a completely missed hit, then this movie is OK.But if you're expecting a great Kung-Fu thriller, this isn't it.There are a lot of roll-your-eyes moments, where you could see it coming a mile away and the cheese factor is high. The script seems to have been written by the black dude starring in it, at least it feels that way.It's about as good/bad as the first movie.Then there's the cheesy soundtrack. It's crap. It reminds me of Kanye's stuff. It's crap too. (I just looked up the sound track and he is actually on it, so now it makes sense).I did have fun watching it though, it's not awful if you can get past the obvious stuff and I think overall it deserves the rating it has right now.5/10

nektef I thought to avoid watching this movie, because is a sequel of a terrible-boring wrongly directed movie called THE MAN WITH THE IRON FISTS(2012), which is characterized by wrong choices and wrong decisions in all levels: Producer, Director, Actors, Writer... The first movie was a child attempt of RZA to become a Writer-Director-Producer-Music-Protagonist ...all in one: A monumental ego catastrophe.But finally, I saw the movie, and I was surprised. The movie continues with the story of Thaddeus and his journey through China, but now is a well done movie, with beautiful scenes, great camera handling and photography sometimes is precious. The plot is not predictable and has enough turns to keep you attached to the action developed in the movie. Dialogues are not boring or stupid ...an sometimes you could feel some poetry and oriental wisdom expressed in the lines. Fight scenes are well done and choreographs work well. The music is also a hit. CONCLUSION: if you like the action genre, the movie deserves to be seen, and the reason for it: the well done job on the Direccion, made by Roel Reiné(Dead in Tomstone, Dead Race 2-3).Maybe is not one of the best action movies of the year, perhaps far from that, but the movie has some valuable elements that make you feel satisfied at the end. Is a kind of crazy movie that some times make you remember the style of action of movies like Kill Bill.I give 7 stars rating, for this entertaining action movie.
