Any body seen Iron Monkey? Now that was a great QT film

Has any body heard of Iron monkey? that one is my favorite QT film.

But it wasn't a QT film. 😬

And no, have not watched it.

I think QT was responsible for it coming to the states though... wasn't he? I never was clear on that..

though I love Iron Monkey,I just got the sequel and haven't got a chance to watch it yet.

iron monkey is like hero. QT just inroduced it to the westerners. donnie yuen is one of the most prolific matials arts action choreographer in th business. he's up there with the ranks of yuen wo ping.

When did the sequel come out? Is it just Iron monkey 2 or is it called somthing else?

Iron Monkey... a great movie.... sleave hammer punch, or something like that!

I believe that QT convinced Miramax about bringin the film from Hong Kong to the States. I'm not sure how it happen, but QT help promote the film here in America. I think he is consider producer (as in advertising the film) of the film.

I thought i heard something like that ✅

Awesome! No one I have ever talked to has even HEARD of Iron Monkey.

QT was just responsible for bringing it to the states. He was on Jimmy Kimmel Live not too long ago, right before Hero came out here, discussing Kung Fu movies. He said that he watches a lot of martial arts films, and the ones that he thinks will do well here, he discuess with Miramax. Then he slaps his name on the top so that all the QT fans will be sure to see em.

I think its awesome. Iron Monkey and Hero were both good movies. Although I saw both movies before they made it here, I was glad that they did. Exposes more people to the films.

Will have to see the sequel if Donnie Yen is in it!!! love him. Loved the first one, got it on 2 disc dvd.

did you know tha kid that played Wong Fei Hung was actually a girl?
i think movies like this would have been out in the asian communities long ago... like many other Asian movies ive seen like years earlier. They are just now making its way to the rest of the cinemas or available the other members of the public

LOL this movie has zero to do with QT ... they just stick his name on foriegn cinema so people will buy it ...

Its a fantastic kung fu movie though, well worth watching / buying

I saw it years ago, and got a few friends hooked on it as well. One of the coolest Martial Arts films I seen. Very entertaining. 🙂

I actually just picked this up a few days ago along with Hero also, but haven't had a chance to watch either one yet....I'd heard alot about Iron Monkey so I figured I'd get it.

OMG 😂

QT sucks dick he could never direct a film that good 😆

Hung Xi Guan's no-shadow kick was better. 😛
It is basically Hotaru's grasshopper kick from MK Deception.

this is where they got Kung fu Hustles Buddha palm idea from...
idont know why they changed the name of Buddha palm to what ever they call it now...

Okay Iron Monkey 2 was a piece of crap.
